Our Shingle Products

Our range includes both decorative and functional shingle aggregates suitable for domestic landscaping, commercial works, and construction applications.

Pea Shingle

Pea shingle is commonly used for drainage systems, pathways, pipe bedding, soakaways, and decorative landscaping. Available in 6mm, 10mm, and 20mm sizes.

Oxford Shingle

Oxford shingle features attractive natural limestone tones and is commonly used for driveways, hard landscaping, soakaways, and drainage applications.

Pea shingle is typically used for finer drainage and decorative applications, while Oxford shingle is often preferred for driveways, larger drainage systems, and hard landscaping projects.

Common Uses for Shingle

Shingle for Drainage

Shingle is widely used within soakaways, trench drainage systems, pipe bedding, and land drainage projects due to its free-draining properties.

Shingle for Driveways

Larger shingle sizes can create durable and attractive gravel driveway surfaces that help improve water drainage and reduce standing water.

Decorative shingle is often used for garden borders, footpaths, planting areas, and outdoor landscaping schemes where a natural finish is required.
