Here at Mainland Aggregates Ltd, we specialise in transforming garden aspirations into reality using our high-quality gabion stone and baskets. Our focus is on delivering not only aesthetic beauty but also durability in every garden project. Our mission is to provide materials that enhance the visual appeal of gardens while ensuring lasting stability and strength. With our extensive range of gabion stone, we are equipped to meet diverse landscaping needs, making any outdoor space both elegant and resilient. Gabion stone is a versatile material that has long been employed for constructing attractive and cost-effective retaining walls. However, its utility extends beyond traditional applications, especially in home landscaping where gabion stone offers an easy-to-use solution for creating various innovative garden features. One popular application of gabion stone in gardens is for creating raised beds. These beds are not only visually appealing but also offer excellent drainage, crucial for plant health. Constructing them with gabion baskets filled with our specially selected stones ensures that your plants thrive in a healthy and beautifully framed environment. Decorative garden walls are another excellent use of gabion stone. Whether you're looking to establish a boundary wall or a small decorative feature, gabion walls add a unique texture and character to your garden. The natural appearance of the stones seamlessly blends with the outdoor environment, enhancing the overall aesthetic of your garden space. Our Rainbow Gabion Cobbles are ideal for gabion baskets, especially if you desire something more stylish than our traditional angular gabion stone like Charcoal Basalt Gabion Stone. Moreover, gabion stone can be creatively employed in water features. Envision a tranquil pond bordered by a gabion stone structure or a cascading waterfall over a bed of gabion stones. The sound of water over stones is not only soothing but also adds a natural charm to your garden. At Mainland Aggregates, selecting the right type of gabion stone for your project is a meticulous process. We cater to a wide range of tastes, ensuring that whether your garden theme is rustic, modern, or anything in between, we have the perfect stone for you. Our vast selection of gabion stones, graded in accordance with industry guidelines, is designed to suit various landscaping needs. Constructing these garden features is straightforward. It begins with assembling the gabion baskets in your chosen location, followed by carefully placing the stones. We always recommend starting with a firm base, preferably compacted MOT Type 1, to prevent any settling. The face of the baskets, or the 'visible' part, is key to achieving a polished look. It’s here that the quality of our handpicked gabion stones truly stands out, providing a flush stone wall effect.
