Pebbles for Commercial Landscaping
Commercial landscape has to survive without daily attention. That pushes the specification towards durable, mid-tone, larger-grade stone that hides dust, resists displacement and can be washed occasionally rather than constantly.
Quantities are large enough that grading consistency and dispatch scheduling become the main commercial questions, ahead of colour.
Suitable pebble types
- Landscaping pebbles
- Grey pebbles
- Stone chips
- Unpolished pebbles
Recommended sizes
20–50 mm for most beds; 50–80 mm where displacement is a concern.
Recommended finish
Natural or unpolished — polished stone loses its advantage in low-maintenance settings.
Colour selection
Mid-tone grey and mixed natural blends look presentable for longest between cleans.
Quantity considerations
Calculate by area and depth per zone, then add 5–10% site allowance.
