FAQs

How much do I need?

Calculate the area you want to cover and determine the depth of the chippings to estimate the required volume.

What is the best way to install the chippings?

Prepare the ground, lay a weed membrane, and spread the chippings evenly.

How often should I replace the chippings?

The lifespan depends on usage and maintenance, but they can last several years with proper care.

Can these chippings be used for driveways?

These chippings are not recommended for heavy traffic areas like driveways. They are best suited for pathways and decorative areas.

How do I maintain the color?

Rake the chippings occasionally to prevent dirt buildup and enhance the color. Wetting the chippings will also bring out the colors.

What if the delivery is kerbside?

Water the chippings to enhance the colors.
