For clay subsoil in Washington, AR, use angular crushed stone (commonly 3/4" crushed stone or crushed limestone road base) because it locks together and compacts well. Plan for a deeper base (6 to 8 inches compacted) and consider a geotextile fabric to separate the stone from clay and reduce rutting. Top with a 1 to 2 inch layer of finer crushed stone or stone dust if you want a smoother driving surface.

A 20 x 10 ft patio (200 sq ft) with a 4 inch compacted stone base needs about 2.5 cubic yards, which is roughly 3.3 tons of crushed stone. Because Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum and to allow for compaction and slight overage, we recommend ordering 3 to 4 tons. If you plan a thicker base or expect to compact heavily, choose the higher end of that range.

Yes—properly installed crushed stone drains well and stands up to hot, humid summers and heavy downpours common in West Arkansas. The key is good drainage design, proper base depth, and compaction; without those, clay subsoils can cause settling and washouts. Add edging and periodic replenishment after severe storms to keep the surface stable.

Choose crushed, angular stone for driveways in Washington, AR because it locks together and compacts to a firm surface; rounded river rock tends to shift and rut under vehicle traffic. Crushed limestone or granite (3/4") is common locally and provides a durable, cost-effective base. Use rounded stone only for decorative areas or drainage features where shifting is acceptable.
