Blue Black Slate Paving
Blue Black Slate Paving has a unique naturally riven texture and is available in a range of eye-catching colour options, suitable for creating a modern or traditional patio design which will bring life to any garden. Like many natural stone paving materials, black slate paving slabs are a very durable option for patios and pathways. A high-quality slate tile can last decades and the durability of the paving makes it an excellent option for high traffic outdoor areas. Slate slabs are incredibly stain-resistant, meaning that your stone can look as good as new for years to come! Both its durability and stain-resistant nature makes it one of the best choices for those who want a no-fuss, low maintenance space. Designers often regard slate as a high-end material as it can really add value to a property. Using Blue Black Slate Paving for a patio, path or even driveway can even increase the value of your home thanks to its upscale reputation, durability and finish.

Blue Black Slate is available in a range of sizes to suit your project! Choose from large format 600×900 pavers to smaller 800×200 linear slabs or a mixed size Patio Kit, which is perfect for random laying to create a unique finish! The natural beauty of slate paving is totally unique and provides an eye-catching finish to suit a range of styles and designs.
Sealing Slate Paving
It’s generally advised to seal Indian slate paving to help prevent any staining, as well as helping to prevent the growth of any moss or algae. You may want to consider sealing your stone, especially if your slabs are light in colour, as any stains will be more visible. However, sealing is not compulsory and there is a wide range of sealing products on the market which will provide various results. Some sealants will simply seal and protect, whereas others can be used to enhance the colour of your slabs. Sealing your slate patio paving will also help to protect against other general wear such as fading which can sometimes occur over long periods in places where the stone is likely to see excessive use, such as public walkways. As for when to apply a sealer, there are no specific guidelines and most landscapers and tradespersons will have their own tried and tested methods. Some people choose to seal their paving slabs before laying to prevent any staining during the laying process and others prefer to leave their stone unsealed for up to a year, allowing the slate to weather naturally before applying a sealant. We always advise speaking to a local tradesperson who will be able to assess the many variables within your environment and offer specific advice for your project.

What is Riven Slate Paving?
The term ‘riven’ refers to the surface texture of the stone, created naturally when the stone is split along its layers, providing a truly authentic finish. This process leaves beautiful natural variations throughout the surface of each slab, meaning that no paver is exactly the same, one of the main appeals of Riven Paving! Each slab features machine cut edges which add a premium appeal to the slabs for a sleek finish.
