Path Suggestions

[shepp 2,285]

I wondered what you guys would suggest I should use for my pathways in my garden.

I would prefer not to use standard pea shingle as it kicks about a bit, bit bored of slate chippings plus I would prefer a more brown colour.

I considered a semi sealed surface but I hear I would need to put some type of scalpings underneath? Plus concerns of altering PH of soil.

i used wet concrete then topped with 1" pea gravel tamped it in to concrete let in dry and you will have a gravel finish that doesnt move looks good

why not go for (ash turf) , it never as to be cut, so no mess or weeds , and will stay tidy all year-round ive had + got prob with my tarmac drive, ive put a post up on here . I didn't want to re-tarmac all again , so had to chip of old compo that had stained it, and leave loose on surface , as to sweep away just leaves the stain there, left it blends in better with the drive which is prob worn anyway lol

That looks smart, I have seen it done by specialists using resin, interesting to know it can be done with concrete.

I think it's a good few quid for realistic looking astro turf mate.
