FAQs

How much area does one 20kg bag cover?

Each 20kg bag typically covers approximately 0.24m², but this can vary depending on the application depth.

Can I use these chippings for a driveway?

Yes, they are suitable for driveways but it's recommended to combine them with a stabilizing base for increased durability.

How do I calculate the amount of chippings I need?

Measure the area you want to cover and calculate the volume needed based on the desired depth. Consider using an online calculator to assist with this.

Do I need to use a weed membrane?

While not strictly required, a weed membrane is highly recommended to prevent weed growth and maintain the appearance of the chippings.

How do I maintain the color of the chippings?

Regular raking and cleaning will help maintain the color. Consider applying a sealant for additional protection and enhanced appearance.

Are these chippings suitable for water drainage?

Yes, they can aid in water drainage, particularly when used in pathways and garden beds.

What is the best way to install the chippings?

Troubleshooting

Chippings appear dirty or discolored.

Rake the chippings to remove debris. Consider washing them with water if necessary. Use a sealant for long-term protection.

Weeds are growing through the chippings.

Ensure a weed membrane is used underneath the chippings. If weeds persist, hand-pull them or use a suitable weed killer.
