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 - so beneath turf or grass seed - 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)
  • Half Bulk Bag contains approx 500kg

Delivery and Shipping

Standard Delivery is currently between 3 - 15 working days.

Next Working Day may be available depending on your location; please select an option at the checkout (this will vary during Christmas and over bank Holidays).

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 or onto a level, solid surface such as a tarmac drive (not gravel or grass sorry).

Shipping is free to Cheshire, Flintshire, Wrexham, Manchester, Merseyside and Liverpool - outside of this area prices start at £19.95.

If you have any questions or if you have tight or restricted access, just give us a call on 01244 280008 or send images to sales@dandys.com

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

Samples

Samples are sent with Royal Mail 2nd class service so please allow 3 to 5 working days (please allow extra during Royal Mail Strikes).

Samples are chosen at random and naturally occurring products may vary slightly in shade and particle size, from load to load.

This is a small amount of product that will fit in your hand, approx 100gms per sample.

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/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.

E.S.

I am truly disappointed with the delivery service I received. At the time of delivery, I was away at work. I was more than happy to receive the parcel on the drive or from door. Little did I know that I was going to receive a sight that would never forget when I got home. It was as though a tornado did the delivery. The huge pallet was totally wrecked, with shattered wood chippings all over the driveway. I came home and had to start picking up huge wood chippings that your driver had destroyed and left behind for me to collect. As the road is shared with other users, I then had to apologies to all the relevant neighbours for the complete and utter disregard for other peoples’ homes. I am truly flabbergasted that your driver can behave in such a manner. He also had the audacity to break down the pallet on purpose and chuck a few bits into the sand that I purchased from you.

Would you do this to you home?
