Combining Washed Pebbles with Other Granules

← Back to Which permeable kit should I use for pools?

Looking to add more creativity to your resin-bound surface? Mixing washed pebbles with other aggregates such as marble or granite opens up plenty of unique design options for permeable flooring around pools and outdoor spaces.

Benefits of Mixing Washed Pebbles and Other Granules

Combining washed pebbles with marble, granite, or porphyry granules lets you tailor the look of your finished surface. This not only delivers a visually interesting effect but can also help match the colour and texture to your garden or pool area. By blending different types and shades, you can design bespoke pathways, surrounds, or feature areas that stand out while still ensuring excellent permeability.

How to Combine Aggregates Effectively

When mixing aggregates for a resin-bound surface, it’s important to use pre-washed and dried stones to ensure strong bonding with the resin. You might start by selecting two or three complementary granule types, such as washed pebbles and marble, then combine them before adding the resin. Pay attention to the granule size and colour ratio to achieve a consistent finish. For a ready-made solution, consider the Flowstone Permeable Floor Kit, which gives you both pebbles and resin with detailed guidance for best results.

When This Matters

• If you wish to reflect a particular design theme or aesthetic in your landscaping
• When you want to enhance both the appearance and functionality of your pool surround or patio
• For projects requiring a durable yet decorative permeable surface solution
