Charcoal Black Decorative Gravel: Bold, Modern, and Low Maintenance
What It Is
Charcoal Black Decorative Gravel is a dark, striking stone designed to create strong contrast and a clean, modern finish in outdoor spaces. Its deep charcoal tone adds depth and definition to both residential and commercial landscapes.
What It’s Made Of
This gravel is made from high quality natural stone, crushed to a consistent size for reliable coverage and stability. The angular shape allows the gravel to settle and lock together once installed.
What It’s For
Charcoal Black Decorative Gravel is ideal for projects where contrast and structure matter:
Garden Beds: Creates bold contrast against plants and lighter materials.
Pathways: Provides a firm, defined walking surface.
Driveway Borders: Perfect for clean edging and structured lines.
Feature Areas: Ideal for statement landscaping zones.
Modern Landscapes: Complements contemporary homes and architectural designs.
How to Use It
Spread evenly over a compacted and prepared base to a recommended depth of 50 to 75mm depending on the application. Installing edging will help maintain clean lines and prevent movement. For additional weed control, consider using geotextile fabric underneath.
Features and Benefits
Deep Charcoal Colour: Strong visual impact with a modern finish.
Angular Gravel Shape: Helps lock together for improved stability.
Durable and Long Lasting: Designed to perform in Australian conditions.
Low Maintenance: Does not decompose or require frequent topping up.
Versatile Application: Suitable for residential and commercial projects.

Frequently Asked Questions
What can decorative stone be used for?
Decorative stone is ideal for garden beds, pathways, feature areas, borders, drainage zones, and modern landscaping designs. It adds texture, contrast, and long lasting visual impact to both residential and commercial projects.
How much decorative stone do I need?
The amount required depends on the length, width, and depth of the area you are covering. A common depth for decorative stone is around 75–100mm, depending on the look and application. If you are unsure, our team can help you calculate the correct cubic metre volume before ordering.
Is decorative stone low maintenance?
Yes. Decorative stone is a low maintenance landscaping solution. Once installed properly with suitable edging and weed matting if required, it provides long term coverage without needing frequent topping up like organic mulches.
Will the colour fade over time?
Natural stone retains its colour well in Australian conditions. Some surface dust may wash off after installation, but the core stone colour remains consistent over time.
Do I need to prepare the area before installing stone?
Proper preparation is important. We recommend clearing the area of weeds, levelling the ground, and compacting the base where required. Installing edging helps keep the stone contained and maintain a clean finish.
Do you supply decorative stone in bulk?
Yes. Our decorative stone is sold by the cubic metre and supplied in bulk. This makes it suitable for both small garden upgrades and large scale landscaping projects.
What access is required for delivery?
