Prices vary with the job. Prices in Birkenhead depend on the size of the job and access and timing, so send your details for an exact fixed price. Our cost guide gives typical UK prices.

How do you stop weeds coming through gravel?

A proper base and a good-quality geotextile membrane under the gravel stop most weeds growing up from the soil. Over time a few seeds blow in and germinate in the gravel itself, but they are shallow-rooted and easy to pull out or treat. Keeping leaves and debris raked off helps.
