Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your landscaping, always begin by clearing the site of vegetation and topsoil. We highly recommend installing a high-quality landscape fabric before pouring the chippings to prevent weed growth and stop the stones from sinking into the subsoil.
Compatibility: These stones are suitable for most residential garden projects. However, because they are limestone, consider testing your soil pH if you plan to plant acid-loving shrubs directly against the chippings, as the stone may raise alkalinity over time.
Care: To keep your Cotswold Chippings looking their best, use a leaf blower on a low setting to remove debris or occasionally rake the surface to maintain an even distribution. If the stones become dirty over several years, a gentle spray with a hose is usually sufficient to restore their brightness.
