Soil Improver
Dandy's Soil Improver is perfect for existing soil that just needs a good old boost to bring it back to life.
For Sandy Soil:
Add our black, friable compost which is completely organic and chemical free. Just give it a mix at the start of the Spring and you'll have beautiful root growth boosting soil ready to plant into. The green matter retains moisture and continues to rot down releasing nutrients into the soil.
For Clay Soil:
Our Composted Mulch Fines are fab for improving drainage and for lightening up heavy clay soils. Composted mulch fines are a cross between a a mulch and a compost - so light and nutrient packed, but very woody! This is a great one to mix into heavy soil and it's also great for whacking down onto your beds and borders over the Winter, prepping you well ahead of time for the growing season come Spring.
We can supply you with 3 sizes of bulk bag:
- Jumbo Bulk Bag which contains approx 1000ltrs (one cubic metre)
- Standard Bulk Bag contains about 750ltrs (same as most builders merchants)
- Half Bulk Bag contains approx 500ltrs
Small Handy Bags are 50ltrs and the perfect option if you want a small quantity or if you have access issues and will need to carry through your house or over any walls etc.

Product Disclaimer
Weeds
We do not chemically treat our products for weeds. Weeds thrive in warm, wet weather and especially in very fertile soils and composts like our own. Although every care is taken to remove weeds during our screening process we can not guarantee that weed seeds are not present in the soil or compost that you receive. To keep your topsoil organic we suggest pulling up common weeds, when and if they appear, instead of using chemical weed-killers. Or purchase some of our anti-weed prevent membrane and some gravel or mulch, for an easy weed-free garden!
Gravel Size & Colour
Images are for representation only. All products that Dandy’s supplies are naturally occurring products and may have slight variations in colour, size and content, individual rocks, stones or cobbles made be broken or misshaped because of this. Sizes of products specified are approximate and can vary. Naturally occurring products such as slate or gravel are sourced from quarries and so can often differ in appearance slightly from load to load.
