Are gravel grids worth it?

Usually, yes, on sloped drives, busy drives and anywhere you want to stop gravel spreading onto the pavement or into the house. Grids hold the stones in cells so they cannot rut or migrate, and they make the surface firmer for walking, wheelchairs and buggies. They add to the cost, typically around £20 to £50 per square metre.
