What Are Gravel Driveways?
A gravel driveway is constructed using loose aggregates like crushed stone, pebbles, or river rock, spread over a prepared base. Unlike paved surfaces, gravel driveways are flexible and permeable, making them well-suited for areas with good drainage and varying terrain.
Gravel is a popular choice thanks to its affordability, fast installation, and casual, country-style appeal.
