#610 limestone is the finishing stone. Fine crushed, mixed with dust, it compacts tighter than any other limestone grade we carry. When you roll it or drive over it, it packs down smooth. That makes it the preferred topcoat for driveways, walkways, and parking surfaces that need a clean, firm finish.

Applications
What #610 Limestone Gets Used For
Driveway Topcoat
After a base layer of crusher run or #57 limestone, a 2-inch topcoat of #610 limestone gives the driveway a finished surface. It compacts smooth, reduces loose stone scatter, and gives the driveway a cleaner look than bare crusher run.
Walkways
#610 limestone works well for pedestrian paths between structures, around homes, and through landscaped areas. It compacts firm enough to walk on without sinking, and the fine texture is easier underfoot than larger stone.
Parking Surface
When appearance matters on an unpaved lot, a #610 limestone top layer gives you a much cleaner finish than coarser stone. It settles flat and stays that way under regular vehicle traffic.
Patio Base
Under pavers, flagstone, or patio blocks, #610 limestone compacts to a level base that won't shift. The fine particles fill gaps and create a dense, stable surface for the finished material to sit on.
Smooth Paths
For maintenance paths around buildings, utility access roads, and service lanes, #610 gives a surface that's easier on equipment tires and boots than larger stone.
Compacted Surfaces
Any surface that needs to look and feel solid after compaction is a candidate for #610 limestone. It packs tighter than any other grade we carry. No mud in wet weather.

#610 Limestone Calculator
For topcoat applications, plan for 2 inches of depth over the base layer. Length (ft) x Width (ft) x 2 (inches) / 324 = cubic yards for topcoat. 1 cubic yard of #610 limestone = approximately 1.5 tons.

#610 is the most popular driveway stone in the parish. The mix of dust, fines, and 3/4-inch stone packs tight and locks together. Drives smooth, holds up to weather, sheds water.
Contractors building driveways in Hammond, Ponchatoula, and Amite City spec #610 because it compacts to a hard surface that does not rut or wash out. Homeowners replacing gravel driveways order it for the same reason.
Standard depth is 4 to 6 inches over compacted base. We deliver by the cubic yard or by the truckload.

Can #610 limestone be used as a standalone driveway material?
It can, but I'd recommend a base layer of crusher run or #57 first on any new driveway. #610 as a topcoat over a solid base gives you the best result. As a standalone on bare soil, it can rut under heavy traffic.
Does #610 limestone get muddy in the rain?
Less than bare soil or crusher run. The compacted surface sheds water reasonably well. In extremely heavy rain events like what Tangipahoa Parish sees during hurricane season, standing water can soften a #610 surface temporarily. It firms back up as it dries.
How does #610 compare to ABC stone?
They're very similar products. ABC stone (Aggregate Base Course) and #610 limestone are both fine-crushed with dust and compact in a similar way. The naming varies by region. In this area, #610 is the common term.
Is #610 limestone good for a horse or livestock path?
It's a reasonable option for stable paths and paddock areas. The compacted surface stays firm, gives animals traction, and drains better than bare dirt.
How long does #610 limestone hold up on a driveway?
A well-installed #610 topcoat holds several years under normal residential traffic. Heavy truck traffic wears it faster. A 1-inch refresh every 2 to 3 years keeps the surface looking good.
