About Stone Dust (Screenings)

Stone dust, also called screenings or crusher dust, is a fine aggregate produced by crushing granite and other stone materials. It is gray in color with a particle size ranging from 0 to 1/4 inch. This material is ideal for base layers in construction and landscaping work because its small particles compact and lock together under pressure, creating a stable, durable foundation that resists movement.

Stone dust differs from coarser gravels and crushed stone due to its fine, consistent size. Because of these small particles, it fills gaps and creates an even, level surface. It resists shifting when properly compacted, making it reliable for long-term use in various climates. Contractors and homeowners rely on it for driveway bases, patio foundations, equipment pads, and comprehensive grading projects. The material works equally well in both residential and commercial applications, offering consistent performance across different uses and diverse site conditions throughout Georgia.
