Basement Gravel Every basement requires a proper fill layer before concrete is poured. Gravel is the most reliable material used beneath the basement floor slab — it provides a solid and stable base for the concrete and also serves as a drainage layer, allowing water to flow away from the foundation.
The thickness of the gravel layer varies based on site conditions and soil type, but the standard depth is approximately 8 inches. This ensures a strong foundation and long-term structural stability for your basement floor.
