#4 Washed Stone in a 1" Size Range

#4 washed stone in a 1" size range is a clean, crushed aggregate produced by screening and washing larger stones to remove fines, dust, and debris. The washing process ensures a cleaner product, making it ideal for applications where minimal contamination is important.

The 1" size offers excellent drainage properties, as the larger, uniform pieces create voids that allow water to flow freely. This makes #4 washed stone a popular choice for drainage systems, septic fields, French drains, and as a base material for driveways and roadways. It is also used in commercial construction for bedding pipes and as a stable foundation layer. The washed attribute reduces dust and helps prevent clogging in drainage applications, but the larger size means it is not suitable for areas requiring compaction or a smooth finish. Overall, #4 washed stone is valued for its cleanliness, drainage capability, and versatility in both residential and commercial projects.
