This stuff is slick-it keeps the rock where it belongs and seperates the dirt from the rock. Our drive has no pot holes or ruts. The best money you could ever spend GEOTEXTILE FABRIC probably about 50 cents a linear foot. Second make sure the constructor understands the basics of drainage, topsoil removal, compaction, etc. Not all builders are created equal-water does not run up hill and it will erode any barrier placed in its way over a period of time.
