Installation & Maintenance

1/4″ Natural Installation Tips:

To install 1/4″, first remove weeds and compact the soil. Add a sturdy weed barrier fabric to minimize maintenance. Spread the gravel in 2–3 inch layers and rake for a level surface. In high-traffic areas, compact lightly to reduce shifting. For play zones or dog runs, consider edging or a containment border.

1/4″ Natural Maintenance Tips:

Occasionally rake to redistribute stones and maintain a level surface. For clean aesthetics, hose down the gravel a few times a year to remove dust or organic debris. If you experience thinning from heavy foot traffic, replenish with a fresh layer annually.
