about decorative aggregates

•  Decorative Aggregates are highly versatile.
•  They make a stunning low maintenance alternative to grass.
•  When applied to the surface Decorative Aggregates will suppress the growth of undesirable weeds.  This can be even more effective if used in conjunction with Landscaping Fabric
•  They are incredibly easy to install, making them ideal for areas where paving could be complicated such as curves.
•  Decorative Aggregates are particularly hard-wearing and can withstand heavy use, even on a driveway.
•  Decorative Aggregates help to regulate soil temperatures.
•  They make an excellent pest deterrent as slugs and snails dislike moving across their sharp surfaces.
•  Many plants prosper when grown through Decorative Aggregates as they drain well but also prevent moisture from evaporating too quickly.
•  Concrete can be given a much more interesting texture when Decorative Aggregates are embedded.
•  Decorative Aggregates are very attractive in their own right.  They can make a highly effective background, by highlighting and drawing the eye towards focal points.  This is particularly striking when using contrasting colours.  For example a light coloured aggregate around a dark coloured shrub or a dark aggregate around a light coloured statue or sculpture would be incredibly eye-catching.
