Decorative Stones

Decorative stones aren’t just about appearances (though they do help tidy things up nicely). They also help with drainage, weed suppression and reducing maintenance.

 

Why Choose Decorative Stones?

Using decorative stones in your garden or landscaping project adds colour and contrast to soft planting, timber fencing or paving. But they’re not just for show:

 

• Good drainage – Reduces puddling and surface water.
• Helps stop weeds – Especially with a membrane underneath.
• Low maintenance – Doesn’t need mowing, trimming or watering.
• Lasts for years – Stones don’t break down like bark mulches.

Where Can Decorative Stones Be Used?

There’s a decorative stone for almost every job. They work well:

 

• On driveways – especially angular gravel that locks together.
• For garden paths – soft underfoot and visually tidy.
• Around ponds and water features – slate works particularly well.
• As a mulch around shrubs or trees – to retain moisture and prevent weeds.
• Between paving slabs or stepping stones.
