3/8" Limestone Screenings

3/8 Inch Limestone Screenings in Austin, TX

Limestone Screenings 3/8" is a finely crushed limestone material that compacts tightly, creating a smooth and stable surface. Because of its smaller size and stone dust content, it locks together extremely well when properly installed.

It is commonly used as a base under pavers, flagstone, and pathways, and is also popular for walkways and patio foundations where a firm, level surface is needed.

• Re-compact if surface loosens over time.
• Add light top-off material if settling occurs.
• Maintain proper drainage to prevent washout.
• Install over compacted base for best long-term performance.
