Weedguard Stratacheck is a high-performance non-woven geotextile membrane designed for ground stabilisation, filtration and drainage applications. Manufactured to provide exceptional water permeability while maintaining soil separation, Stratacheck helps create stronger, longer-lasting landscaping, paving and drainage installations.
Ideal for use beneath driveways, patios, pathways, artificial grass and decorative aggregates, Stratacheck prevents the intermixing of sub-base materials and underlying soil, helping to maintain structural integrity while reducing the amount of aggregate required. Its high-porosity construction conforms to SuDS (Sustainable Drainage Systems) requirements, making it a reliable solution for modern drainage and water management projects.
Backed by a 35-year guarantee when installed correctly and covered within 48 hours, Stratacheck delivers long-term performance for both domestic and commercial applications.

Benefits
Stratacheck acts as a filtration and separation layer, allowing water to pass freely while preventing soil and aggregate from mixing. This helps maintain drainage efficiency, prolongs the lifespan of paved surfaces and reduces maintenance requirements over time.
Installation Guidance
- Lay directly onto a prepared sub-grade surface.
- Extend membrane edges vertically where possible to retain aggregate and sub-base materials.
- For artificial grass installations, butt adjoining sheets together rather than overlapping.
- Cover within 48 hours of installation for maximum UV protection and warranty compliance.
