Would it be best to use landscape fabric and pea gravel or limestone? Nice 3 Season Room but now is just the dirt. Thanks

It depends on where you live, and what the flooring will be.

I live in South East. I have a normal treated plywood floor with tile on it. Walls and ceiling are insulated floor is not as of yet. My entire fenced in backyard garden and dog play area is plants and pea gravel, lava rock paths. Concrete patio outdoor living room. I just added new gravel to paths and trying to think what is best for under the room? Thanks

So, we gather this is an elevated structure, not on grade- open underneath like a crawl space?

Is this a trailer, or home on slab? Tiled plywood floor sounds like a trailer. And is that the main living area, or the current floor in the 3 season room, above dirt?

No this is a house with a nice additional sunroom, off the ground level with the house roof cut into the original roof, very nice room. Pretty much a 3 season room or extra living room / den.

Yes open underneath.

Landscape cloth and any pea or lime stone is fine. Basically anything you want.

I think I would go to black plastic, 6 mil, and then Pea gravel. With a wood floor, it is important to keep the soil as dry as possible.
