Calculate the area you want to cover (length x width) in square meters. Then, determine the depth you want to lay the chippings (typically 2-3 inches). Use an online calculator or consult with a landscaping professional to determine the exact amount needed.
Lay the weed membrane over the prepared ground, overlapping the edges by at least 10 cm. Secure it with membrane pegs before spreading the stone chippings.
Remove any debris by hand or use a leaf blower. For deeper cleaning, you can rinse the chippings with a hose, but avoid high pressure.
These chippings (14-20mm) are generally not recommended for driveways due to their size and potential for movement under vehicle weight. Consider larger aggregates designed for driveways.
The color can last for many years, but it may fade over time due to sunlight and weathering. Applying a stone sealant can help protect the color and extend its lifespan.
Yes, these chippings are generally safe for pets. However, ensure they do not ingest the chippings, and be mindful of sharp edges.
