What it is
Gravel is used under floors and slabs as a base, in drainage layers, rainwater recharge pits, garden paths and sometimes in concrete.
Key points
- Drainage layers and soak pits
- Base under floors and pavers
- Garden paths and landscaping
- Filter media in rainwater pits
Why it matters
In recharge pits, layers of gravel and sand filter roof water as it goes into the ground.
How Elamentt handles it
We use graded gravel in rainwater recharge pits and as a base under ground-floor slabs where needed.
