Florida's go-to base rock. Compacts hard for driveways, pads and parking areas.

Limerock is crushed Florida limestone with its fines left in. Spread it, wet it and roll it, and those fines bind the larger pieces into a dense layer that sheds water and carries traffic. It is the usual base under pavers, asphalt and concrete slabs, and many rural and side driveways use it as the finished surface.

Good for

  • Driveway base and surface
  • Base under pavers or slabs
  • Equipment and parking pads
  • Shed and AC pads
