Why choose decorative gravel over mulch?

​​

  • Lasts for years – Gravel doesn’t decompose, so it keeps its look and depth without yearly top‑offs.

  • Low maintenance – Fewer reapplications, less raking, and no color fading from dyes.

  • Weed + pest resistant – With a proper underlayment, gravel discourages weeds and doesn’t provide food or shelter for termites and other pests.

  • Firewise – Unlike wood mulch, stone is non‑combustible—ideal around grills, fire pits, and building foundations.

  • Stays put in storms – Heavier than mulch, gravel won’t float away in heavy rain and resists wind.

  • Great for drainage – Allows water to percolate, reducing runoff and muddy spots.

  • Durable for high‑traffic areas – Perfect for paths, dog runs, and play borders; it won’t break down under foot.

  • Clean, modern look – Crisp edges and long‑lasting color enhance curb appeal.

  • Cost‑effective over time – Higher upfront cost, but fewer replacements vs. annual mulch refreshes.

  • All‑season performance – Doesn’t mat, mold, or compact from snow or sun.
