Gravel is a great option for your under-deck area. It provides excellent drainage, which is especially important if you have a wooden deck, as it prevents moisture damage and rot. It also can help prevent erosion in areas with poor soil conditions and make it easier to access your under-deck area by creating a level surface.
Putting a material like concrete or gravel will help keep your under-deck area dry. You can also include a weed barrier fabric topped with gravel to promote drainage and prevent water buildup.
The best gravel under your deck depends on climate, drainage needs, and personal preference. We offer both pea gravel and crushed stone, which promote drainage and aesthetic appeal.
