Driveways are one of the first things a visitor sees when they come to your home, and therefore they can make or break a home’s curb appeal. Many homes have driveways that are made of asphalt or concrete surfaces, which in reality may be practical, but are not very visually pleasing and can be very expensive to install. Stone driveways offer a more visually appealing solution at a lower cost, with a variety of options that will enhance the exterior... Read More

The answer in this case? A cubic yard of stones weighs more.
Here at Patuxent Materials, we’ve always sold our products by weight rather than mass (square... Read More
