Bark, Compost & Topsoil

At John Nicholls Trade, we stock a variety of bark, garden compost, and topsoil for your landscaping needs. Our selection of Westland, Rolawn, and Hallstone brand products offers options for any size project and budget. Whether you require a bulkbag of topsoil for a complete garden refurb or just a smaller box of multi-purpose gardening compost for a new flower bed, we have you covered.

Both topsoil and garden compost are essential for healthy plant growth in your garden. Topsoil is generally able to retain more water than compost and will usually include more dry debris such as small stones and minerals. Gardening compost, on the other hand, is made up of decayed organic material and will offer more nutrients for plants. An ideal setup may include compost surrounding your newly planted flowers or plants, topsoil as a rain-soaking barrier, and decorative bark or chips on top. Chips and bark are also good at discouraging snails from attacking your plants.

Our team of experts can help you pick out the right amount of compost, top soil, and decorative mini bark or chips for your landscape or garden project, no matter what the size. We can also help you with any exterior paint needs to finish off your dream plans with a pop of colour.
