Horticultural Questions We Often Answer

Where to get bark mulch delivered in Thatcham?
Willis & Ainsworth delivers premium bark mulch throughout Thatcham from our London Road depot. 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 Thatcham 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?
Woodchip Mulch, 20mm Fine Woodchip, 10mm/20mm Compost are the best products as they suppress weeds, retain moisture, and look attractive. For Thatcham gardens, we recommend 75-100mm depth, refreshed annually. Composted wood fines are excellent for improving soil structure. Premium bark mulch is an option but expensive compared to local materials
Do you supply ericaceous compost?
Yes, we supply ericaceous compost and topsoil perfect for acid-loving plants like azaleas, camellias, and blueberries. Popular with Thatcham gardeners dealing with naturally alkaline soil. Available in bulk or smaller quantities.
How much bark do I need for my garden?
For effective weed suppression, apply it at 75-100mm depth. We'd recommend considering a 40mm screened Ornamental Whole Tree Chip instead as it's much more economical than Bark. A 50m² border needs approximately 5 cubic metres or 3-4 tonnes. Our team can calculate exact requirements. Call 01635 865679.
Can you deliver wood chips for paths?
Yes, we supply wood chips ideal for informal garden paths and play areas. They provide excellent drainage and a natural appearance. Popular for woodland gardens and around Thatcham Nature Discovery Centre style landscaping.
What's the difference between bark and wood chip?
Bark is slightly more decorative, longer-lasting, and more expensive. Screened Wood chips are much more economical than bark but still a uniform shape. Both suppress weeds and retain moisture. We can advise based on your specific application. Bark is usually a more consistent dark brown whereas woodchip can be a lighter brown colour. Trade accounts available for landscapers
