#57 Gravel FAQs

What is #57 gravel used for?
#57 gravel (approximately 3/4 inch to 1 inch stones) is commonly used for drainage, French drains, driveways, pipe bedding, and backfill around foundations.
What size is #57 gravel?
#57 gravel ranges from about 3/4 inch to 1 inch in diameter. It's a mid-size aggregate that drains well and is easy to work with.
Can I use #57 gravel for a driveway?
Yes, but it works best as a base or middle layer. For the top surface of a driveway, smaller stone like #8 or #411 limestone compacts more tightly and provides a smoother driving surface.
How much #57 gravel do I need for a French drain?
Calculate the trench length x width x depth in feet, then divide by 27 for cubic yards. A typical French drain uses a 12 inch wide by 18 inch deep trench.
