How to Use Polished Red Pebbles
Prepare the Surface
Clear the area of weeds, debris, and old mulch before spreading the pebbles.
Install a Weed Mat (Recommended)
To reduce weed growth, place a geotextile fabric beneath the pebbles.
Spread the Pebbles
Pour the pebbles evenly over the area, ensuring a layer thickness of at least 30-50mm for optimal coverage.
Level & Rake
Use a rake to distribute the pebbles evenly for a smooth finish.
Compact if Necessary
Lightly compact the pebbles in high-traffic areas to prevent shifting.
Maintenance
Occasionally rinse with water to remove dust and debris, and top up with fresh pebbles as needed.
