If you need a reliable gravel that holds up to traffic and weather, 3/4" crushed limestone is a proven choice.

Keeping your limestone looking and performing right

• Top off as needed: High-traffic areas (like driveways) may need a light refresh over time.
• Re-compact after heavy rain or installs: If you notice shifting, add a small amount and compact again.
• Rake to level: For walkways and decorative areas, a quick rake keeps it even.
• Weed prevention: Using landscape fabric underneath helps a lot. You can also spot treat weeds if they pop up.
• Drainage check: If water is pooling, you may need to add material or re-grade slightly so it sheds water.
