How delivery works
We work with a nationwide network of trusted suppliers. Items in your basket may be supplied by different suppliers and delivered separately. Where this applies, you will see delivery charges shown at checkout for each part of your order. We always aim to group products from the same supplier to keep delivery costs as low as possible.
Delivery areas
Delivery charges apply to mainland UK, excluding: AB, CA, CF, DD, DG, EH, EX, FK, KA, KW, KY, IV, LA, LD, LL, ML, NP, PA, PH, PL, SA, SY, TR, TQ and TD.
If your address is in one of these areas, we will contact you before processing your order to confirm any additional costs. We do not currently offer delivery outside the UK mainland.
What to expect on delivery day
- Deliveries are typically kerbside.
- Please ensure someone is on-site to accept delivery. For heavier items, help with offloading may be required.
- Many building materials arrive on large vehicles. If access is restricted, a specialist vehicle such as a HIAB may be required and could incur an additional charge.
Why delivery can cost more than typical parcel delivery
Building materials often travel on larger vehicles and usually carry fewer drops per run than parcel networks. That is why delivery charges can be higher than standard e-commerce shipping.
Returns
Returns depend on what you have bought and whether there is anything wrong with it. For full details on eligibility, timeframes, and exclusions, please see our full policy.

Product Overview
Buff Cotswold chippings produced from carboniferous limestone quarried in the Cotswolds.
Their natural colour palette ranges from pale cream through buff to honey, brightening shaded areas and creating a clean contrast against planting and paving.
Crushed to an angular shape, the chippings lock together, delivering greater stability than rounded gravel. This makes them well-suited to paths, drives (with a prepared sub-base), borders, and decorative ground cover.
Their free-draining nature and low maintenance requirements make them a practical and economical choice for landscaping projects of all sizes.
Features & Benefits
- Warm buff-to-honey colouring: Creates a bright, natural surface that complements a wide range of designs.
- Natural stone variation: Each load has unique tones and textures for an authentic finish.
- Angular particle shape: Improves surface stability by locking together more securely than rounded gravel.
- Free-draining aggregate: Allows water to pass through easily, reducing puddling and surface water issues.
- Weed suppression with membrane: Minimises upkeep by limiting unwanted growth.
- Low-maintenance surface: Requires only occasional raking and top-ups to stay neat and level.
- Cost-effective in bulk: Bulk bags reduce cost per m² compared with smaller pack sizes.
Applications
- Paths and walkways: Provides an attractive, firm surface for light to moderate foot traffic.
- Driveways with compacted sub-base: Suitable when laid over MOT Type 1 to reduce movement and compaction.
- Borders, beds, and rockeries: Decorative cover that helps suppress weeds and retain a clean appearance.
- Water features and ponds: Enhances edges and surrounds with natural colour contrast.
Installation Guidance
- Prepare and level the base: Remove vegetation, debris, and ensure adequate drainage.
- Install a permeable weed membrane: Prevents regrowth while allowing free water movement.
- Spread evenly to required depth: Compact lightly to improve stability and reduce migration.
Compliance & Performance
- Material specification: Crushed carboniferous limestone, angular in form, naturally occurring and subject to colour variation.
- Performance characteristics: Permeable aggregate suitable for decorative surfacing; may generate dust during transport, which washes off after installation.
