Take Advantage of the Many Uses for Crushed Gravel, Stone, and Pebbles

Crushed gravel, pebbles, or stone that’s been broken down into sizes appropriate for your purposes suits a variety of applications. You can use it to solve problems and improve conditions in many ways:

Drainage Solutions

French Drains

Crushed gravel is essential in French drains, helping to redirect excess water away from structures and low areas.

Base for Drainage Channels

Lining ditches or other drainage channels with gravel helps water flow effectively without creating mud.

Swales & Dry Creek Beds

Using crushed gravel in shallow, sloped areas to channel rainwater or melting snow prevents pooling and erosion.

Erosion Control

On Slopes & Hills

Gravel is an effective erosion control material on slopes or embankments where soil washes away easily.

Under Gutters & Downspouts

Placing crushed gravel beneath downspouts helps disperse water, reducing the chance of soil erosion and muddy spots.

Foundation and Base for Structures

Sheds & Outbuildings

Crushed gravel provides a stable, level base for structures like sheds, gazeboes, and pergolas.

Decks & Patios

As a stable underlayer for decks and patios, gravel prevents uneven settling and improves drainage.

Pavers & Walkways

Used as a compacted base under pavers or stepping stones, gravel keeps them stable and prevents sinking.

Garden & Landscape Beds

Raised Bed Drainage

Adding a layer of gravel at the bottom of raised flower or vegetable beds improves drainage and prevents root rot.

Rock Gardens

Gravel can be used to create rock gardens or xeriscape features. It will supply a well-drained surface for drought-tolerant plants.

Mulch Alternative

For high-traffic areas in garden beds, gravel serves as a long-lasting mulch alternative that doesn’t need frequent replacement.

Pathways & Walkways

Simple Pathways

Crushed gravel is a low-cost option for pathways, providing a rustic look that’s easy to install and maintain.

High-Traffic Areas

It can create durable paths that won’t become muddy, making it ideal for areas with a lot of foot traffic.

Transition Areas

Gravel can act as a buffer between landscaped beds and lawn areas or patios, helping with drainage and with defining spaces.

Weed Control

Under Mulch or Soil

Adding a layer of gravel beneath mulch or soil in garden beds can act as a weed barrier.

Around Fences or Raised Beds

Filling gaps with gravel in these areas reduces weed growth and creates cleaner borders.

Parking Areas & Driveways

Parking Pads

Crushed gravel is an economical surface for driveways and parking areas, controlling mud and dust and improving drainage.

RV or Trailer Storage

Gravel pads create a stable surface for vehicles, protecting the ground from erosion and tire ruts.

Outdoor Play & Recreation Areas

Playground Base

A layer of crushed gravel beneath play equipment adds drainage and prevents pooling.

Fire Pit Areas

Surrounding a fire pit with gravel provides a fire-resistant, level area and helps contain sparks and embers.

Ground Stabilization

Pet Areas

Gravel is a durable surface for dog runs and chicken coops, preventing muddy conditions and helping to control odors.

Around Tree Bases

It keeps soil stable and minimizes erosion around the bases of trees, particularly when they’re situated on sloped ground.

Or Elevate Your Outdoor Design with Pebbles & Decorative Gravel

Decorative gravels and pebbles from Brandywine Quarry offer the same problem-solving characteristics as crushed stones and gravel—but with added beauty.

Decorative Elements & Borders

Border Edging

Ornamental gravel can create a clean line between garden beds, pathways, or lawn areas, defining spaces without encroaching on surrounding plants.

Fill for Stepping Stones

These beautiful stones can fill gaps between stepping stones or pavers, providing both support and an attractive appearance.

Accents Around Fountains or Ponds

Using decorative gravel around water features prevents erosion and keeps the area clean and mud-free.
