Contractor and bulk questions
Do you sell landscape fabric in bulk to contractors?
Yes. We manufacture SHIELD, XBAR and TERRA and quote contractors, landscapers, farms and municipalities on tiered, quote-based pricing by the roll count or pallet. Send your volumes through the bulk pricing form and we reply with a quote.
Which DOTDAY fabric should I spec for gravel, pavers or a driveway?
XBAR. It is a 5 oz dual-layer fabric, a woven top over a needle-punched backing, with 332 lb CBR puncture resistance (ASTM D6241). Use TERRA 8 oz for road base and heavy stabilization, and SHIELD for planting beds under mulch or soil.
Which fabric goes in a French drain or behind a retaining wall?
TERRA non-woven geotextile. Water passes through the needle-punched mat while soil fines stay behind. Choose 4 oz for simple drainage, 6 oz for French drains and wall backfill, and 8 oz for road base.
Which XBAR sizes are in stock right now?
XBAR 3 ft x 10 ft, 3 ft x 50 ft and 3 ft x 100 ft are in stock. The wider and longer XBAR rolls are back in January. SHIELD and TERRA are available now, and the size lists above show live stock.
Where do you ship from, and can you schedule deliveries?
Orders ship from our warehouse in Miami Gardens, Florida, and we have shipped to 48 states. For larger jobs we can schedule deliveries to match your project phases.
How much fabric do I need for a job?
Enter your length and width in the landscape fabric calculator. It adds overlap and waste and returns the roll count, which you can paste straight into a bulk quote request.
