Anyway, the home is located in Eastern NC on some very sandy soil. There is very little roof overhang, and no gutters, so rains is beginning to erode the soil around parts of my skirting.

While I think I need a new roof, and may want to address gutters at that time, I'm thinking about ordering a couple cubic yards of gravel and putting a 2-3" deep perimeter of gravel around the skirting to help with the erosion, and also control weeds. Maybe 2-wide. I've found out the hard way how easy it is to cut into the skirting with a string-trimmer. <sigh>
Is there any reason this might be a bad idea? If not what would be a good way of 'fencing' in the gravel on perimeter? The metal edging Home Depot and Lowes sell, is very expensive to surround a 16x80. Thx!
