With premium options like road base and #57 stone available at deerfieldbeachsitematerials.com, the company is dedicated to helping homeowners and contractors make choices that suit their unique needs. Understanding the strengths of each material can lead to a durable, high-performing driveway tailored to any property.
Why Choose Road Base?
Road base, a blend of crushed limestone, gravel, and fines (small particles like dust), is an outstanding foundational material for driveways. Its ability to compact into a firm, stable layer makes it ideal for supporting heavy loads, perfect for areas with regular vehicle traffic or unstable soil. Customers often choose road base when building a new driveway or strengthening an existing one, as it prevents settling and serves as a solid base for toppings like asphalt, concrete, or gravel. Its cost-effectiveness and versatility also make it a top pick for expansive projects or those watching their budget.
Why Choose #57 Stone?
#57 stone, a uniformly sized crushed aggregate (typically ¾ inch to 1 inch), excels when drainage and appearance are priorities. Its angular shape locks together while allowing water to flow through, making it a great fit for driveways in rainy regions or low areas prone to pooling. Customers frequently opt for #57 stone as a top layer for its smooth, appealing finish and capacity to handle moderate traffic. It’s also a popular choice for landscaping touches or driveways where a refined look meets practical needs.
When to Use Each – And Why Both Might Be Best
The decision between road base and #57 stone hinges on the driveway’s purpose and site conditions. Road base is the better choice when starting from scratch or in areas needing robust stability, such as under heavy machinery or on soft, shifting soil. Meanwhile, #57 stone shines as a standalone option for lighter-duty driveways or as a finishing layer where drainage and aesthetics are key.
For optimal results, Deerfield Beach Site Materials recommends combining both: a compacted road base foundation for strength, topped with #57 stone for excellent drainage and a polished appearance. This layered method ensures longevity, reduces upkeep, and boosts curb appeal – a winning combination for any driveway.
