Natural Stone Paving
Our natural stone paving slabs are designed for exterior use with each stone type featuring a range of different benefits!
The medley of natural colours in our Sandstone offers your garden the charm and appeal that only a natural stone can offer. With beautiful variations in colour throughout, each paver features its own unique tones formed naturally over thousands of years, promising your garden or patio a finish filled with character! Choose from a riven surface texture or a smooth, sawn & honed option to find the right style of garden paving for you!
Riven or Sawn & Honed Sandstone? What’s the difference?
A riven surface is created naturally when the stone is split along its layers, providing a truly authentic finish. This process leaves beautiful natural variations in texture throughout the surface of each slab, meaning that no paver is exactly the same, one of the main appeals of Riven Sandstone Paving! Each riven sandstone slab features hand-dressed edges which add to the natural, organic look and feel of paving to create a timeless appeal to any traditional design. This style of Indian stone paving is suited to traditional settings and is a great alternative to Yorkstone, whilst also working out to be less expensive!
Sawn sandstone is sawn straight off the block rather than being split naturally. The sawn slabs are then cut down to size and the top surface is honed or sandblasted, creating a smooth finish with a slight sheen. Our Smooth Sandstone Paving is sawn on all 6 sides, meaning that the 4 edges are also straight and machine-cut with a smooth finish to complete the contemporary look with more pronounced patterns and colours.
Well-known for being robust yet stunning, granite pavers are ideal for use on patios, paths and around pools in any domestic or commercial project. This popular paving material is available in a range of colours to suit any design needs and the non-slip surface texture of each slab helps the stone to retain its non-slip properties underfoot, even when wet! If you’re looking for a stylish finish, Granite Paving is a perfect choice and as a hard-wearing natural stone, is suitable for any areas which will see high amounts of footfall.
Slate slabs have a unique naturally riven texture and are available in a range of eye-catching colour options, suitable for creating a modern or traditional patio design that will bring life to any garden. Like many natural stone paving materials, slate paving slabs are a very durable option and a high-quality slate tile can last for decades! The durability of the pavers makes them an excellent option for high traffic outdoor areas. Slate slabs are also incredibly stain-resistant, meaning that your stone can look as good as new for years to come making it one of the best choices for those who want a no-fuss, low maintenance space.
Limestone Paving has been used for patios and garden paving for decades and is a popular option due to its bold, dark tones which offer a dramatic look to any patio and can either act as the focal point or blend into the background of your space. The lightly riven surface texture offers some subtle variations across the surface of the slabs and, as well as being one of the most affordable natural stone paving options available, Limestone paving is also very durable, making it perfect for a wide variety of outdoor areas and, as result, has been used in the building and construction industry for many years.
