FAQs

Is 10mm pea gravel suitable for driveways?

It is better suited for pathways or pedestrian areas; for high-traffic driveways, a larger or more angular stone is typically recommended to prevent sinking.

How much area does an 850kg bag cover?

Coverage depends on depth, but generally, one 850kg bag covers approximately 10 to 12 square meters at a 50mm depth.

Can this be used in a child's play area?

Yes, its rounded shape makes it safer than crushed, sharp aggregates for garden play areas.

Do I need to wash the gravel before use?

The gravel is typically ready to use, though natural dust may settle after the first rainfall, which will enhance the color of the stones.

How do I move an 850kg bag?

This weight is significant and requires specialized machinery like a forklift or a pallet truck on a hard, level surface.

Troubleshooting

Gravel is spreading into lawn or flower beds

Install physical lawn edging or timber borders to contain the aggregate.

Weeds growing through the gravel

Ensure a high-quality, permeable weed-suppressant fabric is laid under the base of the gravel.

Gravel feels too loose to walk on

Ensure the depth is kept to 30-50mm; adding too much depth can make walking difficult.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Gentle and comfortable underfoot due to rounded edges
Excellent natural drainage properties
Provides a clean, finished look to garden areas
Cost-effective for large landscaping projects
Easy to spread and distribute

Cons

Stones may migrate or shift if not contained by landscape edging
Can be difficult to clear leaves or debris from the surface
Requires mechanical lifting equipment due to the 850kg weight
May require a weed-suppressant membrane underneath to prevent growth

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best results, clear the target area of debris and weeds before application. The use of a weed-suppressant membrane is highly recommended to prevent soil mixing and weed growth. Because this is a heavy-duty product, ensure the delivery location is accessible for a crane-equipped vehicle, as 850kg cannot be moved manually. Over time, the gravel may settle; simply rake the surface to level out any depressions. If leaves fall into the gravel, use a leaf blower on a low setting or a wide-tined rake to clear the debris without disturbing the base layer.
