Modern installations use a geotextile membrane under the gravel to suppress weeds and prevent the stone from sinking into the ground.

Gravel FAQs for Filton Homeowners
Will gravel spread onto the road?
With proper edging and a depth of 50–75mm, gravel migration is minimal. We can also use a stabilising grid system to lock the stones in place.
Do gravel driveways need maintenance?
Occasional raking and topping up every few years is all that is needed. The geotextile membrane minimises weeds.
Can I have gravel over an existing driveway?
In many cases yes — we can assess your existing surface and advise on the best approach.
