FAQs

How much gravel do I need?

Calculate the area you want to cover (length x width) and determine the depth. A typical depth is 2-3 inches. Use an online calculator or consult a landscaping professional to estimate the quantity.

Can I use this gravel for a driveway?

While suitable for paths, it may not be ideal for heavy traffic driveways. Consider a more compacted and durable material for driveways.

How do I maintain the color?

The golden color is naturally occurring. Regular cleaning and removal of debris will help maintain its appearance.

Is the gravel safe for pets and children?

Yes, the gravel is generally safe, but supervise children and pets to prevent them from ingesting it.

How do I prevent the gravel from sinking?

Ensure the base is compacted and consider using a geotextile membrane under the gravel to prevent it from sinking into the soil.

What if I need more gravel than one 20kg bag?

You can purchase multiple 20kg bags to cover larger areas. If ordering a pallet quantity, remember it's kerbside delivery only.

Troubleshooting

Gravel is uneven and unstable.

Rake the gravel to redistribute it evenly. Compact the gravel lightly with a roller or tamper.

Weeds are growing through the gravel.

Consider using a weed membrane underneath the gravel to prevent weed growth. Regularly remove any weeds that appear.

Gravel is washing away.

Ensure proper drainage in the area. Consider using edging to contain the gravel and prevent it from washing away.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
