Aggregates near Kansas City, MO, 64118

Material Selection by Project Type

• Driveways: Use compactable crushed stone or Road Base as a base layer. A top layer of clean gravel can improve appearance and drainage.
• Drainage: Choose Crushed Stone like #57 or drain rock. The angular pieces create voids for water to move through. Avoid fines which can clog the system.
• Patios and walkways: Start with a compacted base of crushed stone. Then add a setting bed of sand or fine gravel for pavers. Natural Pea Gravel works for loose walkways.
• Landscape beds and soil work: Decorative stone or mulch covers beds. Top soil or garden soil builds up planting areas and supports healthy root growth.

Local Conditions That Affect Material Choice

ZIP 64118 in Kansas City includes older built-up lots near the city core and newer subdivisions toward the outer edge.

Properties on the north side of the ZIP often have heavier clay soil that drains slowly. This makes clean drainage stone a smart choice for downspout extensions and foundation drains.

Freeze-thaw cycles can lift asphalt or concrete. A well compacted base of angular crushed stone helps minimize shifting and settles into a stable surface.
