What should I lay under gravel, and how deep should I lay gravel?

The way you use your aggregates is entirely up to you. When it comes to landscaping projects, the only limit is your own imagination, as there are a growing number of creative and inventive ways in which it can be used. Not only will it enhance the overall aesthetic of your home, but it can increase the value of your property if you decide to sell at a later date.

How much will a bulk bag of gravel cover?

At Armstrong we stock an impressive variety of bulk bag aggregates to suit any type of property, so you can transform the front and rear of your home just how you imagined.

Wide variety of colours and textures

Everyone wants to create a home that reflects their personality and says something about them. That includes outdoor areas like the driveway and garden, and the type of aggregate you use will make all the difference. We also sell important accessories such as the gravel driveway grid which helps to protect the aggregate when used in driveways. It stabilises the aggregate and reduces the risks of potholing and rutting. 

Time-saving

Using gravel is a great time saver in the long term, cutting down on the amount of maintenance work required in the exterior of your home. While natural lawns look amazing, they do need a lot of time and energy to keep them in good condition. The same also applies to flower beds, which bring wonderful pops of colour, but also take up hours of your spare time. That is never the case with aggregates, which after being laid have no maintenance requirements at all. It ensures you have much more free time while also creating an eye-catching landscape. 

Low cost

Purchasing garden aggregates and gravel is largely a one-time cost, with only the occasional top-up or replacement needed over time. This is great news for homeowners working on a tight budget, or for anyone looking for a cost-effective way to transform the exterior of their home.

Compared to gardening costs it is also much lower, as you have to continually invest in gardening products in order to keep the area in good order. You also do not have to be a DIY or landscaping expert to lay aggregates. All you need is a rake and a few spare hours to get everything looking just right.

Eco-friendly

In today’s world, it is more important than ever to be aware of our impact on the environment. The good news is that because most aggregates are produced in the UK there is a low carbon footprint compared to buying from abroad, which means not only do you get to enjoy a brand new aesthetic, but you also do your bit for the environment.
