Zen Water Feature

Sparkling Glass Border

Add a touch of magic with coloured glass chippings around flower beds and borders. They catch the sunlight beautifully and add a contemporary twist to traditional planting.

Slate Monolith Focal Point

Create a dramatic centrepiece with a drilled slate monolith water feature. Standing up to 1800mm tall, these natural slate pillars add real wow-factor to any garden. Surround with matching slate chippings and subtle LED uplighting for an unforgettable evening display.

Bark Mulch Borders

Give your flower beds a professional finish with natural bark mulch. It suppresses weeds, retains moisture, and creates a beautiful woodland feel around your planting.

Japanese Rock Garden

Create a minimalist zen garden with fine gravel, carefully placed boulders, and raked patterns. A stunning low-maintenance space for meditation and relaxation.

Top Design Tips

01

Mix Textures

Combine different aggregate sizes and types for visual interest. Pair fine gravel paths with larger cobble borders, or mix slate chippings with smooth pebbles around planting.

02

Consider Contrast

Light aggregates pop against dark planting and vice versa. White pebbles against green foliage or dark slate against pale stone walling creates stunning visual contrast.

03

Layer Your Design

Use different aggregates to define zones in your garden — gravel for pathways, slate for seating areas, cobbles for borders. Each zone tells its own story.

04

Think About Drainage

Aggregates are naturally permeable, making them an eco-friendly choice for driveways and paths. They allow rainwater to drain naturally, reducing runoff and flooding risk.

05

Order Samples

Always order sample bags before committing. Natural stone varies in colour, and seeing it in your actual garden setting ensures you'll love the final result.

06

Prep Is Everything

Invest time in preparation: level the ground, lay quality weed membrane, install edging. Good prep means your finished project will look professional and last for years.
