Black Diamond Gravel Chippings
Our Black Diamond Gravel is a stunning 20mm basalt chip that is super modern and will create a sleek contemporary feel in any garden! This stone looks jet black when wet and a smokey graphite colour when dry.
This 20mm chipping is a nice size for walking or driving on. As a naturally angular stone, that is beautifully uniform, it's ideal for water features and to set off your planters and borders in your designer garden! This is a hard wearing aggregate that will last for years to come.
Just like our topsoil and compost, we do three sizes of bulk bag; a jumbo bag contains approx. 1000kg (one tonne) of gravel, a standard bulk bag contains about 750kg (same as most builders’ merchants, other aggregate suppliers) and a 500kg bag which is basically a half-filled tonne bag.
Small bags of gravel or slate are 25kg and the perfect option if you want a small quantity of aggregate or if you have access issues and need to take the gravel via non-wheelbarrow friendly access!

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 may 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.
What you have ordered, and whereabouts you are, will determine the method of delivery, as well as the cost. When you enter your delivery address at checkout a haulage rate bespoke to your order will be generated.
In general - if you live in or near Chester, we'll deliver to you ourselves with a HGV crane, if you live elsewhere in the UK we'll use a pallet network who will use a manually operated pallet truck to move the pallet of bag(s) to the kerbside or onto a level, solid surface such as a tarmac drive (not gravel or grass sorry).
If you're ordering goods tipped loose in bulk then an 8 wheeler HGV tipper will drop it off. If you have any questions or if you have tight or restricted access, just give us a call on 01244 257584.
Please note small items such as samples, or items valid for free delivery will be shipped with a 48 hr courier or with Royal Mail second class service.
Here at Dandy's we often get asked to help work out quantities needed for topsoil, bark, and gravel.
Here are some quantity calculators to give you a helping hand, please note though these are just estimates and of course may not be exact - we advise you to under order so that you can always order more if you need to!
Garden Lawn Turf
Length (m) X Width (m) = amount of rolls needed. We advise that you order 10% extra so that you have plenty for offcuts.
Crusherrun
Use the Gravel Calculator then multiply by 1.25 (= tonnes per inch)
Natural Stone Paving
Length (m) X Width (m) = m2 you need. Our packs are 15.25m2.
