Deliveries are typically made between 7-10 working days, Monday to Friday, between 8am and 5pm.
The delivery point must be smooth, level, and accessible for a heavy goods vehicle (18-tonne tail lift vehicle).
It is recommended to clear and level the ground and lay a weed membrane for best results before spreading the chippings.
Contact the supplier immediately to discuss alternative delivery options or site accessibility requirements. Ensure the delivery point is smooth, level, and accessible for an 18-tonne vehicle.
Use a rake to evenly distribute the chippings. For larger areas, consider using a landscape rake. Ensure the base layer is level before application.
Ensure a high-quality weed membrane was laid correctly before application. If weeds persist, manually remove them or consider applying a suitable weedkiller, ensuring it is safe for surrounding plants and any aquatic life.
Rinse the chippings with water using a hose. This can help to remove any dust or fine particles that may have settled and dull their appearance.
Setup: Before laying the chippings, ensure the ground is prepared. For weed suppression, it is recommended to lay a landscape fabric or weed membrane first. Level the area as much as possible before spreading the chippings. Aim for a depth of 3-5cm for optimal coverage and effectiveness.
Compatibility: These chippings are compatible with most garden soils and plants. They are safe for use with water features and ponds containing fish. Ensure any landscaping fabric used is permeable to allow for drainage.
Care: Minimal care is required. Over time, leaves and debris may accumulate; these can be raked off periodically. In areas prone to moss growth, a mild moss killer can be used, following product instructions. No special treatment is needed for the stone itself.
