How Are Sand & Gravel Used In Landscaping?
Sand can be used in landscaping to level a lawn, improve soil quality, provide a foundation for laying pavers or a pool, build a golf course, or filter the water of a pool. It is also used for mixing concrete. The appearance and coarseness of sand varies depending on the type. Speaking to a landscaping professional is one of the quickest ways to learn which type will best meet your needs.
Gravel is both a functional and aesthetic landscaping material that can be used as a substitute for mulch, a cost effective driveway or path, a base for retaining walls and pavers, a bed for pipes and drainage, and as concrete subgrade. Gravel can also be used underneath golf courses, in dog parks or for dog runs.
What Is Fill Sand?
As the name implies, fill sand is ideal for filling in holes in a lawn and for backfills. It is made up of unwashed sand and small pebbles. It is popular for playgrounds and as padding underneath concrete.
What Is Pool Sand?
Pool sand or pool clay is a fine sand that is an ideal base for above ground swimming pools. It is also excellent for horseshoe pits.
What Is Pea Gravel?
Pea gravel is a popular type of decorative stone or garden gravel that is made up of pea-sized pebbles. It is popular for driveways, paths, and playgrounds. It can also be used as drainage rock around your property or as a substitute for mulch in flower beds. There are many other types of decorative rock to choose from if pea gravel doesn’t appeal to you.
What Is Processed Gravel?
Processed gravel consists of a blend of sand, stone and other fine particles. Mined stone & sand goes through a process in which the products are crushed and filtered through a sieve. It is a cost-effective choice for walkways and driveways. This coarse mixture of sand and stone is also a critical material for building retaining walls or laying pavers.
