4, 6, 8 oz Non Woven Fabric for Landscaping, French Drains, Underlayment, Erosion Control, Construction Projects - 6 oz (3X50)

My project with this was lining a French drain trench, 300+ feet, just along the ‘banks’ after the landscaping company neglected to put in any fabric. That was a really bad choice, because the clay just washes into the gravel then, and will clog up the drain ditch in no time.I couldn’t dig out all the gravel and line the whole thing, but it occurred to me that the worst erosion will be along the surface, so I bought this to line the edges. I cut strips of about 12-16 inches in width, and used some ingenuity and tools I had to try to tuck it in between the clay and the gravel. That was a LOT of work, but this fabric held up well.It’s thicker and more substantial, and drains far better, than regular landscape fabric. Geotextile fabric has a different purpose; it’s not something you put down under mulch. Consider it more of a soil retention fabric than a weed blocker; the aggressive Bermuda grass manages to poke through it, though the other weeds that plague my yard don’t seem to.So far I’ve used it to line my French drain as above, and seen how much it reduces the washing of clay into the effluent water; I used it under two retaining walls, and watched delightedly as the rain filtered through the clay soil and then the fabric, running clear as it went to the drain.If you have a project that needs geotextile fabric, this is excellent stuff. I used the 6 oz weight, because I wasn’t sure what I needed and it was right in the middle; it has definitely met expectations and even exceeded them. I bought more from this supplier when I realized how well it worked. Oh, and price wise? Compared to local landscape supply shops, the quality is better and the price is, too. If I need it again, I’ll buy it from this vendor.

Works great. Very strong. Water makes it through and is very hard to puncture with stapes so there is no worry about ripping it accidentally when moving it around and there are rocks on it.

I used this to make a French drain and to separate the clay soil from the permeated pipe and stones. It works wonderfully and has helped us solve a huge drainage problem. I have ordered more from this company to complete the project next spring.

We used this to go under the crush rock we installed for our driveway. Works great, easy to install, easy to cut to size. Material itself has a good weight to it and worked for our needs.

Forget that over priced, flimsy plastic based junk that they sell at the big box stores - this 6 ounce landscape fabric is worth every penny. BUY IT. Do not hesitate. This has made my gardening 1000% easier. It allows for beautiful gravel walkways between raised beds without any fear of weeds growing up through it. This stuff is STRONG - make sure you have a good pair of scissors to cut it and sharp landscape fabric pins! Water drains through it easily though.I have already purchased three times and I will not hesitate to buy again if needed.The 6 ounce fabric is what I got and as thick as this is, I can only imagine that the 8 ounce fabric must be strong enough to stop bullets.
