Placing an order online was so easy. Delivery was on time. When the driver realized we had a newly poured driveway they erred on the side of caution and opted not ti drive in it. The company even sent me a message explaining that call. Would recommend!

Try Our CalculatorMeasure each area in feet, multiply length by width, and pick your depth before running the numbers. One cubic yard of stone covers about 100 square feet at three inches. For dry creek beds and swales, measure the channel bottom width, the length, and average depth separately, since those areas need far more material than a flat bed.
Add heavy woven landscape fabric and steel or paver edging so your stone stays where you put it through spring runoff, and consider a few boulders as anchor points in larger beds.
Plan your stone around snow removal. Coeur d'Alene averages a real snow load, and every winter someone shovels or plows their pea gravel into the lawn. Keep loose rock at least a foot back from walkway and driveway edges, use crushed minus rather than rounded stone anywhere a blade will pass, and install solid edging so pushed snow stops at a hard line instead of dragging material with it.
Rinse decorative stone after it is spread. Crushed rock from regional pits carries a fine dust that dulls the color and, once our first rain hits, cements into a gray film across the surface. A thorough hose down right after installation washes the fines down into the base where they help lock the layer together, and your river rock or basalt shows its true wet weather color.
Use stone strategically for wildfire defense. Homes on Coeur d'Alene's forested edges benefit enormously from a noncombustible five foot zone against the foundation, and gravel is the easiest way to create it. Replace bark, dry needles, and juniper right at the wall with washed rock, keep the band clear of debris each fall, and you have reduced ignition risk without changing the look of the rest of the yard.
Decorative stone earns its keep in Coeur d'Alene because our winters are wet and our summers are dry, and rock handles both without breaking down or needing replacement. On the sloped lots common above the lake and along Fernan, gravel and larger cobble slow the spring snowmelt that would otherwise carve channels through bark beds. Silt loam moves easily when saturated, so drain rock and washed gravel are essential around foundations, French drains, and downspout outlets. Stone also stays put through the wind that funnels down the valley, and it will not fade under high elevation summer sun the way organic mulch does. For fire conscious homeowners near the wildland edge, a gravel band against the house is one of the simplest defensible space upgrades you can make.
