Decomposed Granite Red*

Also known as Deco Red. This Decomposed Granite has a redish/brown colour that creates a softer look than the Gold Decomposed Granite. It is a great solution for your paths, driveways and entertainment areas. Practical for both private and commercial applications, it can be cheaper than concrete if you’re laying a big area. One of the best things about Deco Granite is that it’s a naturally porous product, if laid correctly, water simply drains off the surface. Please note this product is a special order and is not kept in the yard.

This product is mainly used for driveways and parking areas. The course granite particles bond together to create a strong base in driveways, which can be further stabilised by mixing with off white cement. It is important to get the mix right, rule of thumb for pedestrian traffic is a minimum of 4% (40kg of off-white cement to a tonne of granite) and for vehicle traffic is a minimum of 8% (80kg of off-white cement to a tonne of granite). When you have the mix right and laid correctly, hammer down with a plate compactor (preferably) until nice and level.
