What Is General Purpose Topsoil Used For?
General purpose topsoil is one of our most frequently ordered products, used across a wide variety of projects including:
- Garden levelling — filling depressions and building up low areas to create a uniform ground level
- Infilling — used to bulk out raised areas, fill voids, or build up levels across larger sites
- Landscaping projects — ideal for shaping garden contours, creating banks, and establishing planted areas
- New build housing — used extensively in post-construction garden preparation and reinstatement
- Commercial landscaping — suitable for parks, amenity areas, and large-scale green space projects
- Backfilling — filling trenches, drainage runs, and construction excavations with good-quality material
How Much General Purpose Topsoil Do I Need?
The quantity required depends on the depth and area you need to cover. As a general guide, a depth of 100–150mm (4–6 inches) is typically sufficient for basic levelling and landscaping. For areas that will be seeded or planted afterwards, 150–200mm (6–8 inches) is recommended. To calculate your requirement, simply multiply the length (m) × width (m) × depth (m) of your area.
