Erosion Control Gravel

While designing an outdoor pathway, it is essential to think about erosion control since both homeowners prefer choosing either pavers or gravel pathways. However, both options function differently in relation to rainfall and surface runoff. Based on what landscapers recommend, gravel can be used to inhibit water flow and increase infiltration, thus becoming widely chosen material when working with drainage problems. Yet, it might shift or be washed away if not placed in the proper way on a slope.

Among many drainage landscape materials, Erosion Control Gravel stands out the most. It provides porosity which allows water to filter through but prevents runoff from carrying away soil due to the reduced speed. When speaking of angular gravel specifically, it should be mentioned that its stones are interlocked, ensuring increased stability of gravel itself.
