Decorative aggregates
Garden paths
Most aggregates can be used on paths when laid on a suitable sub-base.
Aggregates allow water to run through into the ground so are good at reducing the risk of your garden flooding.
Flower beds
We recommend using a landscape membrane before adding the aggregates. This will stop weeds from growing through the chippings, making your flower beds low maintenance.
Cut holes around each plant to give plenty room for growth.
Driveways
Shingle can be an economical way of covering a large area of drive. The smaller the chipping the tighter the fit.
A ground stabilising mesh is a good option to prevent the stone from moving, especially on sloping surfaces.
Finishing touches
Small stones are great for placing round the edge of a patio or to soften the edge of a pond.
It’s always worthwhile to wash the stone before placing it around a pond to ensure they are safe for aquatic life.
Choosing the right aggregate
Smaller sized chipping are better for areas that will be walked on because they lock together well. They are also good for awkward areas and for filling gaps.
