Landscaping Supply Contractors

Here are the seven essential materials used in landscaping:

• Soil - The most important factor for your plants to grow. When adding additional soil to your garden, it must complement the existing soil in your garden. Mix them or lay the new soil on top of the existing soil. This will ensure that the structure of the existing soil will not be damaged.
• Rock - From yellow sandstones to grey volcanic rock, there are different rocks you can use to make your garden look more natural. Also, they can be used in creating sharp edges or defining parts of the garden.
• Gravel - When used for paving, gravel can provide a stable base. There are also coloured gravels and pebbles you can use that can become a feature or as a mulch in your garden.
• Sand - There are also different types of sand for the garden, but it will depend on the job you will use it for.
• Mulches - The two types of mulch are inorganic and organic. Organic are those made from plants or animal manure while inorganic are materials like gravels and pebbles.
• Timber - This landscaping material is used for fences, walls, and other structures in the garden.
• Pavers - From stepping stones to pathways, paving is an essential part of your gardens. The materials used should be hard and durable such as stones or concrete.
