Crushed Concrete in Lexington
Crushed concrete is recycled demolition material that compacts well, making it a cost-effective base for driveways, parking areas and slab foundations. At Gravel Monkey, you buy it by the ton, order online and get a delivered price for your Lexington address.
Lexington gets about 57 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning matter when you spread a base layer. Delivering the right product and getting it down in firm conditions is straightforward with the material calculators on this page.
Crushed Concrete Sizes Available in Lexington
Each size of crushed concrete serves a different purpose. Fine grades are not for heavy base work, and the largest grades are not for thin topping layers. The table below lists the products we deliver to Lexington.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base material | Mixed particle sizes, good for compacting |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Small particles, not for structural base |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | The standard compacting base size | Most common for driveways and pads |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | Large angular pieces lock well |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | Oversize for wet areas or soft ground |

Local Conditions That Affect Your Crushed Concrete Job in Lexington
Lexington sees about 82 days a year when the temperature drops below 32F. That many freeze-thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift. Planning the work window around the coldest months keeps the base stable.
The area gets about 83 wet days a year, with at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Scheduling delivery onto firm ground means picking a dry spell in the forecast. About 3 inches of snow a year is light, but plowing can damage a loose crushed concrete surface if it is not well compacted before winter.
Soils mapped in the Lexington area are commonly well drained, so less base stone may be needed under the surface layer. Ground freezing here is real but moderate, which influences how deep the base layer should be. The ground around Lexington takes water in at a moderate rate, so a standard base depth is usually enough.
How to Estimate Your Tonnage
Use the material calculators to convert your project area and depth into tonnage. Enter your dimensions, and the tool gives the weight needed for crushed concrete. That number goes into the checkout to get a delivered price for your Lexington address.
