What is the cheapest landscape rock?

• <div><p>The cheapest landscape rock is gravel, pebbles, or decomposed granite. These small rocks are great for affordable driveways and walkways. If you’re looking for larger rocks as a building material, you can get fieldstone affordably, especially if sourced from somewhere in your area. </p></div>

Q: Can I fill potholes in my driveway with mulch?

• <div><p>Mulch is best used in garden beds and yards, not in your driveway as pothole filler. It is meant to stimulate plant growth. Upon repeated pressure, it turns into compost, which also serves as fertilizer for weeds to take over. The roots will then break into your driveway, leading to more material loss and structural collapses. </p></div>

Q: How much will a ton of gravel cover?

• <div><p>This will depend on the depth of the structure. For a landscape, patio, or walkway that&rsquo;s around 2 inches deep, a ton of gravel will cover around 100 square feet or about 0.6 cubic yards. However, if you&rsquo;re building a driveway, which should be a minimum of 12 inches deep, you&rsquo;d need about 6 tons of gravel to cover the same area.</p></div>

Q: How much mulch do you need to prevent weeds?

• <div><p>You should add 1 to 4 inches of mulch, depending on your garden type and needs. Keep in mind that no amount of mulch can completely prevent weeds, but a heavier coverage (closer to 4 inches) can suppress weeds enough that you are only seeing them sprout every few weeks. Finer mulch prevents weeds more effectively than large mulch, so if you&rsquo;re using mulched leaves or shredded bark, 1 to 2 inches will likely suffice, while 3 to 4 inches is best for larger mulch, like bark chips or straw.</p></div>

Q: How deep should decomposed granite be?

• <div><p>The depth of your decomposed granite depends on its intended use, but around 3 to 4 inches is the most common depth. Driveways that need to support a lot of weight should be at a depth of no less than 6 inches. Walkways that won&rsquo;t see a lot of weight but lots of foot traffic should be built at a depth of 3 to 4 inches, and patios should also be between 3 and 4 inches deep.</p></div>

They do a lot more than that but that is all we needed at the time. We were very pleased with the service they performed. It is actually pneumatic mulching, so they have a machine that blows it out, and it is easier for them. They may come back if we find that we need to have things planted on...
