Rock and granite
Pea gravel
Small rounded tan stone. Easy underfoot, good for paths and play areas.
$400per cubic yard, delivered and spread
Put fabric under it
Stone does not break down, so weeds that come up through bare rock stay up. Heavy duty fabric underneath is the difference between a bed that looks new in five years and one you are weeding by June.
Three inches covers most beds
Enough to hide the soil and hold together underfoot. Deeper on paths and high-traffic runs.
A one-time job, done right
Rock is the kind of thing you lay once. We confirm the size and depth on site so you are not topping it up next spring.
Do it once
Heavy duty weed fabric, under every rock job.
If you are putting stone down, put fabric under it. It is the cheapest part of the job and the part you will be glad about three summers from now.
- Rock is a one time job
- Gravel does not break down, so whatever comes up through it stays. Fabric underneath is the difference between a bed that looks new in five years and one you are pulling weeds out of by June.
- Keeps your stone out of the dirt
- Without a barrier, rock works its way down into the soil and you lose depth every season. Fabric holds the layer where you put it.
- Goes down before the material
- Laid, cut around your plants, and pinned the same day we deliver. It is the one thing that cannot be added later without pulling everything back up.
