Paver Base 3/4" is a natural rock road base material sized 3/4" and smaller for use as a subbase prior to laying paver sand and pavers, flagstone, brick patio, etc.
This material meets APWA specifications.
Best Results: For best results and to reduce weed growth, install base around 3" - 6" deep while compacting using a vibrating plate compactor and spraying with light amount of water while compacting. Typically you will see between 15% - 25% compaction when using a plate compactor. This compaction may require ordering additional material amount that standard coverages indicate.
- Using a subgrade base material and properly compacting will help your project last going forward. This is especially important if you are installing a patio or concrete area, where sod or grass used to be as the soil there is not a well graded compactable material in most cases.
