A Guide to calculating your Pebble requirements

Pebble coverage is affected by a number of factors, including the coverage area, depth of cover and size of stone. To get you started, we have included a GUIDELINE to help you identify the quantity of pebbles required to satisfy your project needs.

If you are unsure of your requirements, please contact or visit your nearest Bunnings store for assistance.

To determine the quantity of pebbles you require for your project, please download these useful “Pebble Calculation” Instructions

Here is a guide to how many pebbles you will need to lay one square metre.

Square Metre Coverage (1 layer) Square Metre Coverage (2 layers)
10mm – 30mm = 50kgs 10mm – 30mm = 110kgs
30mm – 50mm = 70kgs 30mm – 50mm = 150kgs

 

To keep your pebble quantities to a minimum:

  • Use a base material – you can use an underlay of a less expensive base pebble (the same or similar colour) and lay the feature pebbles on top. However, this should only be done in areas where pebbles are not going to be walked on as this mixes the two types of pebbles together and the base material becomes visible.
  • Mix pebble sizes – larger pebbles do not offer as much coverage as smaller pebbles. You can mix large and small pebbles together, as the smaller pebbles fill the gaps between the larger stones
  • Choose specific shapes and sizes - flatter stones give better coverage per square metre than rounder stones, and smaller pebbles give better coverage per square metre than larger stone
  • Lay your pebbles in grout - this gives you a greater coverage per square metre and is a good idea for areas you walk on

Creative ideas and uses

The natural beauty of these wonderful pebbles and stones allow them to add greater interest and personality to your living spaces. Below are a few ideas to get you started.

BE ECO-FRIENDLY IN THE GARDEN | Pebbles can be used as an interior or exterior mulch to suppress weeds, protect the soil and retain soil moisture (when applied over already moist soil). Either place them straight on a garden bed or gently inside a plant pot. In addition to its functionality, pebbles dress up a pot and off-set shapely greenery.

DECORATE THE DRIVEWAY | Pebbles can be used to create a simple informal driveway. They can be used on their own or around pavers for a fresh and modern look

PUT IN A PATHWAY | Decorative pebbles or stones can be used as an attractive ground cover, creating an immediate pathway or walkway in your front or backyard.

ENHANCE A WET AREA | Given their natural source, pebbles naturally complement pool areas, water features, ponds and other wet areas.

INCREASE THE INTEREST IN YOUR INTERIOR | Pebbles can be used as a feature or exciting design on a kitchen or bathroom wall. Pebbles can be fixed to vertical surfaces with adhesives and provide a wonderful textured finish. They can also be laid in grout to make a hardwearing textured floor surface.

MAKE A SPLASH | Pebbles can be added as a decorative accent to brighten up centerpieces on tables, vase arrangements, candle displays or to add extra dimension to a fireplace

GET CRAFTY | Pebbles can be used to add depth and interest to your next scrapbooking, Art & Craft or mosaic project. You can even add them to your indoor décor – table or counter tops – to create a more contemporary feel in your home

 

Pebble care and maintenance

As the Tuscan Path Pebble Collection is comprised of natural pebbles and quarried stone, these products are resilient and durable by design. Therefore, with careful handling, laying and periodic cleaning, you will be able to retain their look and beauty over many years.

To keep your pebbles in top condition, we recommend you undertake these maintenance practices:

Pebbles used Indoors | Decorative Pebbles
Decorative pebbles have a relatively smooth surface that can either be wiped with a clean cloth or washed in a bowl of luke warm soapy water.

For more stubborn stains, pebbles can be scrubbed with warm soapy water, vinegar solution or a baking soda/water mix and a soft brush.

Pebbles Used outdoors | Natural pebbles, Polished pebbles, Bulk pebbles and Australian quarry stones
Natural pebbles are extremely durable and resilient. They have a relatively smooth surface that is easily cleaned or wiped.

Loose pebbles can be wiped with a clean cloth. An area of pebbles can be cleaned with a pump action water spray or a fine spray from a low pressure hose. Any particularly affected areas can be scrubbed and cleaned with warm soapy water, vinegar solution or a baking soda/water mix and a soft or medium bristled brush.

Silicone spray can also be used to give your pebbles a quick spruice up and extend their life. Simply spray the silicone on to the pebble surface - prior to grouting - and allow enough time to dry. Silicone will penetrate the pebbles and give them a shiny wet look. It is important to note that silicone is not a permanent solution and you will need to reapply it when the pebbles start to look dull. Please also refer to the manufacturers guidelines for the correct and safe application of silicone spray.
