FAQs

How much gravel do I need?

Calculate the area you want to cover (length x width) and determine the depth. A depth of 2-3 inches is recommended for most applications. Use an online calculator or consult with a landscaping professional for precise amounts.

Can I use this gravel for a driveway?

Yes, Charles Watson 10mm Golden Gravel is suitable for driveways. Ensure proper preparation, including a compacted base layer, for optimal results.

How do I maintain the gravel?

Regularly remove leaves and debris. Lightly rake the gravel to keep it looking fresh. Consider using a weed membrane to prevent weed growth.

Is the color of the gravel consistent?

The gravel has a rich golden hue, but natural variations may occur. This adds to its natural aesthetic.

What is the best way to handle the 20kg bags?

The 20kg bags are designed for easy handling. Consider wearing gloves to protect your hands when moving the bags.

What is the kerbside delivery?

Kerbside delivery means the delivery service will drop off the pallet at the kerb (the edge of the road) in front of your property.

Troubleshooting

Gravel is uneven or sinking.

Ensure the base layer is properly compacted and add more gravel to achieve the desired depth. Rake to level.

Weeds are growing through the gravel.

Consider using a weed membrane underneath the gravel. Remove weeds manually or use a suitable herbicide.

Gravel is discolored.

Rake the gravel to refresh the surface. For stubborn stains, you may need to rinse the area with water and mild detergent.
