FAQs

Can this gravel be used for driveways?

While it can be used for light-duty paths, it is primarily designed for decorative landscaping and may shift under the weight of vehicles.

How many bags do I need?

Coverage depends on the depth required. As a general rule, a 25kg bag covers approximately 0.25 to 0.3 square meters at a depth of 50mm.

Does the color stay the same in every bag?

No. As this is a natural quarried product, there may be slight variations in color, size, and shape between different batches.

Do I need a membrane under the gravel?

Yes, it is highly recommended to lay a weed control membrane to prevent weeds and keep the gravel separate from the underlying soil.

Is this product safe for ponds?

It is intended for decorative garden use. Always wash the gravel thoroughly before introducing it to an environment housing aquatic life.

How do I remove leaves and debris from the gravel?

A leaf blower on a low setting or a plastic garden rake works best to remove light debris without disturbing the gravel base.

Troubleshooting

Gravel looks dusty upon arrival

This is common for quarried stone. The dust will clear naturally with rainfall or can be rinsed off with a garden hose.

Weeds growing through the gravel

Ensure a proper weed control membrane was installed underneath the gravel layer.

Gravel shifting or sinking

If the gravel is too deep in heavy traffic areas, it may shift. Use a garden rake to redistribute the stone evenly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent for improving garden drainage
  • Helps reduce mud in high-traffic or wet areas
  • Natural, attractive color profile
  • Easy to install for DIY garden projects

Cons

  • Natural product variations in color and size
  • May require a wash or rainfall to remove transport dust
  • Requires a separate purchase of weed membrane for optimal results

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, clear the desired area of any debris and weeds. Lay down a weed control membrane to prevent aggregate migration into the soil and to stop weed growth. Spread the gravel evenly to your desired depth; a deeper layer is recommended for high-traffic paths to ensure stability. Because this is a natural quarried product, expect some fine stone dust upon opening the bag. This is normal and will typically wash away after the first heavy rainfall. If the gravel appears dull after prolonged dry spells, a simple rinse with a garden hose will restore its natural, clean, golden appearance.
