Garden re-doing

[shefftyke 10]

OK, over the past few years my garden has improved vastly, lots of bedding plants etc...all looking very nice. Unfortunately due to time, I'm unable to maintain it to a decent standard and it's beginning to look like a bit of a mess.

 

I want to get some of that membrane put down in the beds, and then gravel over the top of it...with the hope that it'll help to control the weeds. I might also consider edging the beds with some bricks or something so that it becomes easier to mow.

 

My question is...are there any alternatives to what I'm suggesting?

 

If not, how much is it likely to cost me?

I bought a large roll of this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/4m-x-20m-WOVEN-WEED-CONTROL-FABRIC-MEMBRANE-/170856798508?pt=UK_Home_Garden_Garden_Plants_Fertiliser_CV&hash=item27c7dbd92c stuff and its great, don't get the fabric type (this is woven plastic) as it disintegrates.
