Troubleshooting
Delivery Access Issues
Ensure the delivery route and drop-off point are accessible for a large vehicle. Contact customer service to discuss potential alternative delivery arrangements if needed, although kerbside delivery to hard standing is standard.
Uneven Coverage
Use a rake to spread the chippings evenly across the desired area. For very uneven ground, consider using a layer of landscape fabric underneath first.
Chippings appearing dusty
Natural stone may have some dust from quarrying and transit. A light rinse with water can help settle this dust and reveal the true color of the stone.
