Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is the difference between screened and unscreened soil?

    Screened soil has been sifted to remove rocks, roots and debris, resulting in a smooth, consistent texture ideal for planting and garden beds. Unscreened soil retains its natural texture, making it suitable for bulk landscaping, filling, or general earthworks where a rougher soil is acceptable.

  • What is CBR 10 engineered soil used for?

    CBR 10 engineered soil is designed for construction projects requiring stability and compaction, such as driveways, foundations and retaining walls. Its strength and consistency make it reliable for structural applications while ensuring long-term durability under heavy loads.

  • Can I use underturf soil for all types of grass?

    Underturf soil is formulated to support healthy lawn growth, but the specific grass type can influence results. It works best for common turf varieties, providing nutrients, drainage and a solid foundation for roots to establish, helping lawns grow quickly and stay strong over time.

  • How do I choose the right soil for my project?

    Choosing the right soil depends on your project’s purpose. For garden beds or planting, screened soil is ideal. For bulk landscaping or filling, unscreened soil works well. CBR 10 is best for construction, and underturf soil suits lawn installation. Considering the intended use ensures optimal results.

  • What is the difference between topsoil and garden soil?

    Topsoil is the uppermost layer of natural soil, typically stripped from the surface during excavation. It’s nutrient-rich and ideal for lawns and garden beds. Garden soil, on the other hand, is usually a blend of topsoil mixed with compost, sand, or fertiliser to enhance drainage and plant growth. Garden soil is specifically formulated for planting and offers better aeration and structure. When comparing residential landscape supplies in Brisbane, choose topsoil for lawn levelling and turfing and garden soil for vegetable patches, flower beds, and container planting where higher fertility is required.

  • Are decorative stones just for looks, or do they serve a purpose?

    Decorative stones are aesthetically pleasing but also functional in landscaping. They are commonly used in garden beds, paths, driveways, and water features to reduce weed growth, improve drainage, and minimise soil erosion. Stones like river rock, crushed granite, or pebbles are durable, low-maintenance, and weather-resistant. In hot climates, stones reflect less moisture than mulch and don’t break down, making them ideal for certain applications. When selecting residential landscape supplies in Brisbane, decorative stones offer both visual appeal and practical benefits for many outdoor projects.
