Question 1

How many kilograms of pebbles do I need for X square metres?

Accepted Answer

Rule of thumb: ~50 kg of pebbles per square metre at 5cm depth. For decorative top-dressing in pots, ~1-2cm depth = 10-20 kg per sqm. We recommend ordering ~10% extra to account for settling and to keep stock for top-ups.

Question 2

Will the color fade in Dubai sun?

Accepted Answer

Natural stone pebbles (river pebbles, slate, marble chips) hold color for 5+ years in direct sun. Dyed or coated pebbles can fade in 12-24 months. We list each product's color durability in the description.

Question 3

Best pebble for top-dressing pots?

Accepted Answer

White marble chips (clean modern look), black river pebbles (high contrast against bright leaves), or natural beige (subtle, blends in). Avoid pebbles smaller than 1cm in pots, as they get stuck in the soil and clog drainage.

Question 4

Can pebbles be used on a flat roof for drainage?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Graded gravel (10-20mm) over a drainage mat is a common rooftop garden buildup. Confirm roof load capacity with a structural engineer before adding heavy materials. We can refer you to a structural specialist if needed.

Question 5

Do you offer custom blends?

Accepted Answer

For orders over 200 kg, yes. We can mix pebble types and colors to your spec. Email hello@greenbeetle.ae with the look you want or a reference photo, and we'll quote a custom blend.
