Decorative Garden Gravel and Chippings FAQs
How much gravel do I need?
When selecting the amount of garden gravel you need for your project, it's important to consider what size of stones you will be using and the depth that you'd like them to cover. Generally, a single bag of decorative garden gravel or chippings will cover an area measuring at least 0.2 metres by 0.2 metres and a minimum depth of 0.1 metres.
Is gravel or chippings better for drainage?
Garden chippings are often a better choice than gravel when it comes to drainage as the larger stones will help to allow water to drain away from the surface more quickly. This is especially useful around water features, ponds and near plants where good drainage is essential.
Do you stock traditional gravel?
Yes, we do stock traditional gravel! Our range of traditional gravel is ideal for a variety of tasks such as driveways, pathways, and even drainage. Available in a range of sizes and colours including golden gravel, red gravel, brown gravel and more, you can be sure to find the perfect one for your project. With our traditional gravels being so high quality and durable, you can be sure that your garden project will withstand adverse weather conditions day after day.
Why use garden chippings?
Garden chippings are an ideal choice for a low-maintenance surface in gardens and outdoor spaces. They help to prevent soil erosion and compaction of the soil, as well as provide a decorative finish. They are also handy to keep pesky weeds at bay!
How is best to clean the decorative garden pebbles?
To ensure that your pebbles look new, avoid moss and mould, and are cared for properly, it's important to clean them from time to time. This can be done using a light-pressure washer or even an old toothbrush and soapy water!
