A Guide to (Limestone) Gravel Driveways

Gravel driveways offer quick, easy maintenance and natural drainage benefits, making them a superior choice. Plus, limestone gravel provides a clean, attractive look that works beautifully in both rural and modern settings.

How to Maintain Your Gravel Driveway

Maintaining a gravel driveway is simple and often just involves adding a fresh layer of limestone. Here’s how to prepare your driveway:
Step 1: Fill Potholes
Step 2: Prepare The Site For Fresh Coat of Limestone
Step 3: Measure and Order #57 Limestone

Fill Potholes

Use existing gravel to fill in any potholes and create a level surface. Clear away any tree limbs or debris that might be in the way.

Preparing the Site for Delivery

Before your gravel arrives, make sure the area is safe and accessible for the delivery truck:

  • Check for overhead obstructions like tree branches or power lines.
  • Clear space for the truck to back in safely.
  • Mark and measure the area for accurate coverage.
  • Use the gravel calculator below to determine how much material you’ll need.
  • Place your order and schedule a delivery.

 Measure and Order

When tailgate spreading, you typically get around 2 inches of coverage. However, depth may vary depending on the quantity delivered and the terrain.

Use this simple formula to calcualte how much Limestone you need or use the simple Gravel Driveway Calculator below

Step 1: Length (ft) × Width (ft) × Depth (in ÷ 12) = Cubic Feet
Step 2: Cubic Feet ÷ 27 = Cubic Yards

Pro Tip: It’s always a good idea to call in your order and speak with the delivery crew ahead of time to go over what to expect. If possible, meet the driver when they arrive to ensure everything goes according to plan.

Commonly Asked Questions 

What Type of Gravel Is Best for Driveways?

We recommend #57 White Limestone—hands down the best option for driveways. Though the term “gravel driveway” is commonly used, most driveways are actually made from limestone.

Why #57 Limestone?

  • Angular shape helps the stone “lock down” for superior stability

  • Durable and long-lasting

  • Clean, bright appearance

  • Perfectly sized for driveways

Can I put new gravel over old gravel?


Absolutely. Adding a new layer of gravel can refresh the look of your driveway and improve functionality. It’s a quick way to boost curb appeal and maintain a clean, well-kept property.

IMPORTANT

Please Note: Tailgate spreading is a convenient, drop-and-go service. Because of the nature of this process, the depth of material spread may vary and should be considered approximate. Hand-spreading or moving of material is not included. Click below for more information about delivery.
