Ballast is a high-quality aggregate that is widely used in hard landscaping and construction projects. It is a mixture of various-sized stones and is typically composed of sand, gravel, or crushed stone.
One of the key benefits of ballast is its versatility. It is used extensively in construction projects, such as for building foundations, walls, and floors. It is also used for hard landscaping applications, such as for creating pathways, driveways, and patios.
Another benefit of ballast is its suitability for making concrete when mixed with cement. The combination of ballast and cement creates a strong and durable concrete mix that can be used for a variety of construction projects, such as for building walls, foundations, and driveways.
Ballast is also a low-maintenance option that requires minimal upkeep. Unlike other paving materials, such as asphalt or concrete, ballast does not require regular sealing or reapplication of coatings. It is a low-cost and low-effort solution that can help you save time and money on maintenance over the long term.
