Gravel Gardens & Kerbs

Gravel gardens require minimal maintenance but still offer colour and interest for most of the year. A well-designed gravel garden comes to life through the layout of the gravelled areas and bespoke planting, making use of the large variety of coloured slates, gravel and edging stones,

At Gilbert-Scape we will create a gravel garden to suit your needs and preferences. We’ll talk you through the many options for planting schemes – from colour-coordinated to easy care or bird-friendly plants, the planting will be just perfect for your gravel garden.

You may also want to add a focal point or other garden features such as arbours, stepping stones, bird baths, sun dials, water features or even statues.

Just as with driveways and patios we prepare the ground thoroughly to prevent weeds from surfacing through the gravel and also to support drainage. We’ll excavate the area of your gravel garden to a sufficient depth, install a Geo-textile membrane for weed control, then implement hardcore which will be compacted to form the base of the decorative gravel.

Gilbert-Scape can design and create a gravel garden which will take away the burden of ongoing garden maintenance so you can just focus on enjoying the colours and plants of your new garden.
