The System
Three Distinct Layers for Maximum Drainage and Structural Integrity
-
Top Layer:Fine gravel or decomposed granite for levelling and finishing.
-
Middle Layer: Medium-sized gravel for water dispersion.
-
Base Layer: ¾-inch crushed stone for structural support and drainage.
How It Works: Water moves through each layer progressively, from the turf to the top layer. The middle and base layers disperse water before draining into the soil, preventing pooling and ensuring stability.
Ideal Applications
Where a 3-Layer System Makes Sense
High-traffic areas including sports fields, playgrounds, putting greens and commercial installations.
Regions with frequent rain or naturally poor drainage require specialized turf solutions.
Designed for demanding projects where durability, resilience, and lasting performance truly matter.
