20mm Quartz Rock Coverage Guide
One cubic yard of decorative rock provides approximately the following coverage:
| Rock Depth | Coverage Per Cubic Yard |
|---|---|
| 1 inch | Approx. 324 sq. ft. |
| 2 inches | Approx. 162 sq. ft. |
| 3 inches | Approx. 108 sq. ft. |
| 4 inches | Approx. 81 sq. ft. |

Coverage figures represent mathematical volume. A depth of approximately 2–3 inches is common for decorative stone applications, depending on the underlying surface and desired appearance.
Designing Landscapes with White Quartz Rock
White and light grey decorative stone can create a striking contrast with darker landscape materials. The angular texture of 20mm Quartz Medium Rock adds visual interest while maintaining a clean, contemporary appearance.
This material works well beside charcoal-coloured pavers, dark retaining walls, ornamental grasses and green planting areas.
It can also be used to define landscape borders or create decorative rock sections between planting beds and hardscape features.
Because lighter-coloured stone can make dust, leaves and other debris more noticeable, occasional cleaning and maintenance may be required to maintain its appearance.
How to Install 20mm Quartz Decorative Rock
- Remove weeds, debris and unwanted vegetation from the installation area.
- Level and prepare the underlying ground to establish the desired finished grade.
- Install suitable landscape edging where needed to help keep decorative rock contained.
- Consider whether landscape fabric is appropriate for the area. Fabric is not required for every landscape installation.
- Calculate the required quantity based on the area and desired stone depth.
- Spread the quartz rock evenly and rake to create a consistent finish.
- Remove surface debris periodically to maintain the bright appearance.
For planting areas, keep stone clear of sensitive plant crowns and allow suitable space around stems and trunks.
Quartz Rock vs. River Rock
Quartz Medium Rock and rounded river rock can both be used for decorative landscaping, but they create different appearances.
20mm Quartz Medium Rock features angular particles and a bright blend of white and grey tones. It is well suited to modern landscape designs and defined decorative borders.
River rock generally has a smoother, rounded appearance and is often selected for natural-looking landscape features.
The choice depends on your preferred colour, texture and overall landscape design.
