Product description:

 

CountryBond Self-Binding Gravel is the quintessential choice for creating durable, natural, and aesthetically pleasing pathways, driveways, and cycle paths. Expertly designed, it provides a stable, all-weather surface that is perfect for wheelchairs, bikes, and cars alike, making it versatile for every need.

 

Our self-binding gravel is a blend of gravels, sands, and minerals that fuse together to create a robust and compacted finish. It offers a smoother surface than loose gravel, lessening the chance of dislodging under wheels or feet. This feature makes it pet-friendly as it is resistant to digging and ideal for households with pets.

 

Moreover, it takes pride in its eco-friendly composition, being 100% natural and chemical-free. CountryBond Self-Binding Gravel is a healthier choice for your outdoors, promoting sustainable living while ensuring the safety of your family and pets.

Laying Guide for Self-Binding Gravel

 

  1. Prepare the Ground: Start by marking out the area where you want to lay the self-binding gravel. Remove any vegetation, rocks, and other debris from the area.

 

  1. Create a Solid Base: Depending on the intended use of the area (foot traffic, bikes, cars), you might need to install a sub-base layer. This could be a compacted layer of hardcore or MOT Type 1 to a depth of about 100-150mm. The sub-base provides stability and helps with drainage.

 

  1. Edging: Install a fixed edge to contain the gravel and keep it from spreading. This can be timber, steel edging, or brickwork, depending on the aesthetic you desire.

 

  1. Laying the Gravel: Spread the self-binding gravel over your prepared area to a depth of around 40mm – 50mm. Rake it out to an even layer.

 

  1. Compaction: Once laid, the gravel should be compacted using a roller, vibrating plate or even a hard flat surface for low-volume traffic areas. This will push the gravel together and start the binding process. It’s a good idea to water the area lightly before compacting it to aid in binding.

 

  1. Curing: Allow the area to cure for a few days before using it. This time allows the self-binding properties to take effect and create a hard, durable surface.

 

How Much Gravel Do You Need?

 

The amount of self-binding gravel you need will depend on the size of the area you’re covering and the depth at which you’re laying the gravel.

 

As a guide, one bulk bag (850kg) of self-binding gravel will cover approximately 10m² at a depth of 40mm.

 

To calculate how much gravel you need:

 

  • Measure the length and the width of the area you want to cover in metres.
  • Multiply these together to give you the area in square metres.
  • Decide on your depth (usually 40-50mm), convert this into metres (so 40mm is 0.04m).
  • Multiply your area by the depth to give you the volume in cubic metres.
  • Since one bulk bag of self-binding gravel covers about 10m² at 40mm depth, divide your volume by this to give you the number of bulk bags needed.
  • Remember, it’s a good idea to add a little extra to your calculation to allow for discrepancies in measurements or depth.

Purchase with Confidence

We deliver using a tail-lift and pump truck - not a crane delivery. Therefore it is important to understand delivery will be made to the nearest flat hard standing surface (not on grass, gravel or sloping areas). If it is to go on to a property driveway, it is down to the driver’s discretion if it is viable for him to do.

Bags will be delivered on a wooden pallet and the driver will require a signature as proof of delivery.

If your property is down a narrow country lane or narrow drive way or has sharp bends, PLEASE can you add notes to the order so we can make a successful delivery first time every time. If the pallet company has to come back to redeliver there will be a charge.

Most deliveries are with our customers within 3 to 5 days.
