How much stone? Depends on the job. In Wilmington, beds and borders run 2 inches. Paths and driveways need 4 to 6 inches or more.

A yard is approximately 27 cubic feet. As a general guideline, one yard of material can cover an area of about 10 feet by 10 feet at a few inches deep.

This blend combines #1 limestone at roughly 2 to 4 inches with #2 limestone at 1.5 to 2.5 inches. The size mix provides Wilmington projects with excellent drainage and stable base material for driveways, roads, and heavy-use areas. For Wilmington projects requiring strength and drainage, limestone delivers. The natural gray appearance fits any design, and the material holds up through years of use.

Complete Your Outdoor Stone Project

Your Wilmington project probably needs more than stone. Add mulch for bed protection and soil for healthier plantings in silt loam ground. One order does it.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Fill large areas with stone working from the back forward so you never walk on finished sections. Footprints in freshly placed stone take considerable time to rake out and look unprofessional.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

A ton of gravel covers approximately 80 to 100 square feet at 2 inches deep, depending on stone size and shape. Larger stone sizes cover less area per ton than smaller crushed gravel products.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Avoid limestone gravel anywhere near acid-loving plants like azaleas, blueberries, and rhododendrons. Limestone slowly raises soil pH as it breaks down, stressing these plants over time.

The Unique Landscape of Wilmington

For paths, borders, and drainage, stone is hard to beat. Wilmington humidity and storms can fuel weeds and washout without good coverage. In Wilmington, Delaware, stone is a smart choice for low-maintenance areas, drainage fixes, and high-traffic spots. It’s great for edging, drainage zones, and decorative areas that need to stay put. Base prep and edging keep stone from migrating into the lawn. Pick the right size for the job, from decorative rock to compactable gravel. Delivery keeps the focus on the work, not on loading and unloading bags.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answer

Can I put stone directly on grass?

Skip that shortcut. Grass underneath dies but stays lumpy. Remove it, prep the base right, then proceed with fabric and stone.

Answer

What stone is best for pathways?

Go with pea gravel or crushed varieties for paths. They stabilize underfoot. Large decorative rock is too shifty.

Answer

What stone works around plants?

Neutral options like granite work for planting areas. Limestone raises pH gradually, which hurts acid-loving plants.

Answer

Will stone affect my soil pH?

Limestone and marble chips raise pH over time. Granite and river rock are neutral. Choose based on nearby plants' needs.

Answer

How much stone do I need?

Coverage depends on stone size. Small gravel covers about 100 sq ft per ton at 2 inches. Larger rock covers less. Calculate your area and add 10%.

Answer

Does stone help with drainage?

Definitely. Stone allows water passage that prevents pooling. In Wilmington, where piedmont-coastal transition is common, this is a major benefit.

Answer

Where will you drop the stone?

Wherever you want—driveway, side yard, curbside. Specify at checkout and include any helpful notes for our driver.
