As for when to apply a sealer your Sandstone, there are no specific guidelines. Some people choose to seal their slabs before laying in order to prevent against any staining during the laying process, whereas others prefer to leave their stone unsealed for a full year to allow the stone to weather naturally before applying a sealant.
Riven Sandstone
The term riven refers to the natural surface of Sandstone, achieved when the slabs are split across the natural layers within the stone. 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 Natural Stone Paving!
This style of Sandstone Paving is suited to traditional settings and is a great alternative to Yorkstone, whilst also working out to be less expensive!
Smooth Sandstone
Sawn and Honed Sandstone features a smooth surface and offers an entirely different appeal to a riven Sandstone. The swirls of colour and patterns are considerably more pronounced, which adds premium appeal, and more than makes up for that little extra cost!
Calibrated Sandstone
Calibrated Sandstone simply refers to slabs that have been cut to a consistent thickness. Calibrated Paving is easier to lay as it eliminates any large variations in thickness between each slab, removing the need to take this into consideration when laying!
