Horticultural Questions We Often Answer

Where to get bark mulch delivered in Caversham?
Willis & Ainsworth delivers premium bark mulch throughout Caversham from our London Road depot, Thatcham. Various grades available for decorative and practical use. Next-day delivery available. Call 01635 865679 for pricing.
Can you deliver play bark to schools?
Yes, we regularly supply BS EN 1177 certified play bark to Caversham schools and nurseries. Our hardwood play chips provide safe, attractive surfacing for playgrounds. We can advise on quantities based on area and critical fall heights.
What's the best mulch for flower beds?
Premium bark mulch is ideal for flower beds - it suppresses weeds, retains moisture, and looks attractive. For Caversham gardens, we recommend 75mm depth, refreshed annually. Composted wood fines are excellent for improving soil structure.
How much play bark do I need for a play area?
For BS EN 1177 compliance, you need 300mm depth for equipment up to 3m fall height. As a guide, 1 cubic metre covers approximately 3.3m² at this depth. Our team can calculate exact requirements for your Caversham play area.
Do you supply organic and peat-free options?
Yes, we stock various organic and peat-free products including coir, composted bark, and organic manures. These sustainable options are increasingly popular with Caversham gardeners who want environmentally friendly solutions.
What's the difference between bark mulch and wood chips?
Bark mulch is more decorative and longer-lasting (2-3 years), ideal for borders and showcase areas. Wood chips are more economical, perfect for paths and large areas, but break down faster (1-2 years). Both suppress weeds effectively.
Can you deliver horticultural supplies in bulk bags?
Yes, bulk bags are available for larger projects requiring 10+ bags. This is popular with professional landscapers and for major garden renovations. We can also supply loose tipped loads for the most economical option.
