Frequently Asked Questions
Our Deco or Decomposed Granite consists of finely crushed granules of granite and has a gorgeous Tan/Brown hue. Commonly used in modern garden designs across Brisbane, deco is a popular choice for pathways, driveways and outdoor areas where a more natural alternative to concrete or paving is desired. Its porous structure allows water to drain freely, making it a practical and visually appealing solution for outdoor spaces. It can be used on its own or as a compactable base when combined with cement (an off-white is best to avoid a colour change).
The mixing ratio for deco is approx. 8:1. (8 Deco to 1 Cement). Getting the mix just right is very important as it will not only create a completely stable service, but it also provides a long-lasting finish that will be able to withstand the Queensland weather.
