Rootzone Sand and Soil Mix
Description
Description
Dandy's Root-Zone is a blend of coarse gritty sand and sandy loam topsoil.
Due to the high sand content this topsoil is amazing for areas that suffer from water-logging and/or poor drainage.
It's particularly good if you want a lush, green lawn but have a garden that suffers from a wee bit too much shade, loads of rainfall (who doesn't suffer from this frankly!), or need to circle a pond. It's also great for levelling off for a new lawn and for mixing into any existing soil that easily waterlogs and floods. ** PLEASE NOTE** Root Zone should be used at the root area, beneath turf - it is NOT suitable for use as a Top Dressing.
We can supply you with 3 sizes of bulk bag:
- Jumbo Bulk Bag which contains approx 1000kg (one tonne)
- Standard Bulk Bag contains about 750kg (same as most builders merchants)
- Midi Bulk Bag contains approx 500kg

Rootzone Sand and Soil Mix - Jumbo Bulk Bag approx 1000kg ⭐️ BEST BUY! is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.

Economy Delivery is currently between 3 - 4 working days. You can also select a delivery date that suits you after this.

We use a variety of delivery vehicles and haulage firms to complete our deliveries.
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, onto a level, solid surface such as a tarmac (not gravel or grass sorry).
Bulk Bag and Pallet shipping is free to Cheshire, Flintshire, Wrexham, parts of Manchester, parts of Merseyside and Liverpool - outside of this area prices start at £11.95. Parcels, samples and individual small small bags are shipped with Royal Mail and therefore are not free delivery.

Quantity Calculations
Quantity Calculations
Topsoil and Sand
Length (m) X Width (m) = m2
m2 X 1.2 X Depth (inches)... then divide your total by 36 = tonnes required
Bark, Mulch and Compost
Length (m) X Width (m) = m2
m2 x 0.05 = cubic metres per 2 inch/50mm depth
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.
Natural Stone Paving
Length (m) X Width (m) = m2 you need. Our packs are 15.25m2.
Gravel and Slate
Length (m) X Width (m) = m2
m2 x 0.04 = tonnes per 1 inch/25mm depth
Crusherrun
Use the Gravel Calculator then multiply by 1.25 (= tonnes per inch)
Conversion:
1 tonne = 1000kgs / 1 Jumbo Bag
1 cubic metre = 1000ltrs / 1 Jumbo Bag

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/Stone 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, natural stone paving or gravel are sourced from quarries and so can often differ in appearance slightly from load to load.
