Lay decorative gravel over a weed membrane and a firm base so it does not sink.

All-in ballast is convenient for general concrete. For more control over the mix, use separate sharp sand and gravel.

Before your Faversham delivery arrives
Bulk bags are usually lifted off by crane where access allows; tell us where they can sit and whether the ground is firm. Faversham is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
- Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
- Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
