Cleaned up that little problem area nicely. Less grass to mow too. Nice job.

That was an excellent video! I am trying to lay a rock garden but have some old bricks all around my home that I want to repurpose as the Border. Would love to see how you lay a different type of border around a rock garden. I was wondering if I should put the fabric liner under the brick as well to keep grass and weeds from growing in between or just put sand beneath the stone and then come in behind it with my fabric liner

Looks good overall. Any reason you didn't use geo ground grid for that much of a slope to help prevent washout?

Great video! For a small driveway with a gravel, should i use a landscape fabric? And if yes, what type is better? I'm trying to separate my neighbors grass lawn with a nice looking edged gravel landscape. Also should the fabric have holes for water to drain?

What about drainage? Are you going to let the roof gutters drain along the side of the foundation?

How many tons of rock did you use?

Around here, the rule of thumb (for 2” depth of rock) is one ton per 100 square feet.

If rocks are going to cover the fabric, why use pins?
@scomoore195111 ай бұрын
To secure the fabric to the edges, for one. For another, the rock may shift with traffic, etc. So, the fabric may rip. I imagine there are other reasons.
@gloriatucker61589 ай бұрын
Fasteners keep that fabric in place. I once thought the same thing ..I'm using ricks, I don't need fasteners, I was wrong, the fabric moves. I now have to re work the area as I have weeds in areas where the fabric moved along side the wall.

Been doing lawn care almost 9 years. Started getting into landscaping. Just picked up my very first rock bed and it's about 2,000 sq ft. These people got money, but my job estimate is like $20,000.

@gloriatucker61589 ай бұрын
I've done that one Saturday morning....and afternoon. If your fabric was put down right, all you need to do is move the rocks to the middle or end of the fabric and remove your fasteners. Depending on the quality and strength of your cover, you and someone else may be able to lift it up and dispose of it. If your fabric is one piece, you may have to cut the section you piled the rocks on. That's the easy way. Otherwise, you have to shovel those lil boogers up, put them in a trash container. Then take the weed cover up. Lots of work.

It's sad to see so many contradictions and criticisms of certain contractors in the industry. I wish all would be confident and efficient in their work. The mobile mom-and-pop businesses leave room for doubt. A one-one, proficient presenter on KZbin is insufficient for the public expanse to be satisfied.

No, do not use landscape fabric. Weeds, especially Bermuda grass will grow right through the fabric. Use solid agricultural plastic. You will waste a lot of money and have a horrible rock bed with many, many weeds. This landscaper like many doesn't care about care and upkeep. They just care about the money they will make putting down the fabric. It is going to cost me a lot more money to have the worthless landscape fabric replaced with agricultural plastic.
@darkbikelife42703 ай бұрын
Plastic does not allow water to drain through. How well your weed fabric works is based in a number of factors including weeve and thickeness.
@timkruse45482 ай бұрын
Plastic holds water creating a place for mosquitoes to spawn. Especially under decks.

@user-ew8ct6fm2o20 сағат бұрын
You're not installing the fabric right if weeds are growing through it, and you didn't prep the bed properly, and possibly didn't install a proper depth of rock, and possibly didn't treat the rock bed with preemergent to prevent weeds that grow on top of the fabric.

Surely you do know the rain water will just find it's way through to the cardboard and it will turn to mulch in a couple of weeks, and before you know it Mr weed head will soon be coming out of ibination and popping his head out, just don't get it to be fair, maybe if you used selatape to tape box's together that would help, lol NOT
