#57 Limestone Stone - 3/4" Size

#57 stone in a 3/4" size range is a versatile crushed aggregate made from high-quality limestone. Produced by mechanically crushing and screening limestone rock, this material features angular edges that interlock well, providing stability and strength for a variety of construction applications.

The 3/4" size is ideal for projects requiring excellent drainage and load-bearing capacity. Its angular shape prevents shifting, making it a popular choice for driveways, road bases, and parking areas. In addition, #57 limestone is commonly used as a base material under concrete slabs, in French drains, and for erosion control. The limestone composition offers natural durability and compacts well, though it remains permeable enough to allow water to pass through, reducing the risk of pooling or flooding.

This aggregate is valued for its balance of compaction and drainage, making it suitable for both residential and commercial projects. While its angular texture may not be ideal for decorative or barefoot areas, it excels in structural and drainage-focused applications.
