Posted on 10th June 2022

Garden landscaping projects can be expensive but they don’t always have to be. At Stone & Surfaces Direct, we offer a wide range of stunning natural stone products to take your garden aesthetic to the next level without breaking the bank.

There are many design possibilities when it comes to transforming your garden, including the addition of a new patio, creating an eye-catching rockery feature, decorating your outdoor space with slate aggregates, and so much more.

Whatever size or shape of garden your property features, we have the garden solutions to bring it to life without the need to spend lots of money.

Here are the best ways to transform your garden on a budget.

Decorative slate aggregates

The most simple, low maintenance, and inexpensive way to give your garden a new and fresh look; decorative slate aggregates are a perfect solution.

Available in a wide range of pure and beautiful colours, our decorative garden chippings come in sizes 20mm and 40mm, depending on the sort of looking you wish to achieve.

The most popular choice of aggregates at Stone & Surfaces Direct are our South Lakeland Blue Slate Chippings.

These practical chippings are sourced from Kirkby in Furness quarry in Cumbria’s southern Lake District and display a mid to dark blue appearance when wet and a pale blue/grey look when dry, with some occasional natural brown flecks of colour.

Paving stones

Depending on your budget, paving stones are a fantastic investment if you wish to design an inviting patio area or a pathway that will navigate your garden beautifully.

We have a stunning range of natural stone paving in a variety of styles and colours to suit any garden landscaping project. Some of the most popular choices for natural stone are Kandla Grey Riven Sandstone Paving and Ruskin Blue/Grey Limestone Paving.

Alternatively, if your budget can stretch a little further, we offer a great choice of porcelain paving. Porcelain paving is a man-made garden solution with a huge range of structural benefits and is extremely low maintenance.

Rockeries & walling

Our rockery products are a simple way to bring a creative element to your garden. Stones and rockery interspersed with green foliage and eye-catching, brightly-coloured flowers is an effective method to achieve a garden oozing with character.

Choose our Plum Slate Rockery to create stunning garden borders and planters and watch as the colour brightens beautifully when wet. Alternatively, our South Lakeland Blue Slate Stepping Stones are perfect for makeshift pathways that stand as their own unique feature.
