The natural alternative to reconstructed stone paving. With design trends and the increasing popularity of natural stone it is ideally suited for that extra special patio, garden feature, path or driveway. This classic material possesses the qualities and characteristics only natural stone can offer. It gives rise to variations in colour and texture, maximising its natural appeal.
The above driveway is constructed of vehicle thickness stone, a mixture of the following sizes - 275x 275, 275x560, 560x560 and 560x 845 (all measurements in mm). The colour is Raj Green, which is a mixture of green, brown and khaki green. As you can see, the colour goes well with natural red sandstone walling and pillars but is equally accommodating with Scotch Common or reclaimed Victorian or Edwardian brick walls or pillars. The edges of this thickness of stone are fettled.
The above natural stone patio has been built in three sizes, 275x560, 560x560 and 660x845, with a 2800mm diameter squared off circle within the layout. The stone is pedestrian thickness, cut with straight edges. The colour is Desert Sand, which is a mixture of shades, including Yellow, Buff, Tan, Pink and Red with complimentary veining and the occasional fossil imprint.
Used in conjunction with hand dressed natural red sandstone block as step rises, the Raj Green natural paving has created a set of entrance steps second to none. The practical sizes available make this product very versatile and easy to use. With a little bit of planning and thought, designs such as this can be created and will enhance the aesthetic and monetary value of your home.
The light tones of the Desert Sand mixes well with the combination of natural red sandstone walling and natural Yorkshire stone steps. This type of layout favours more the older property, but it tastefully designed, would enhance the beauty of the garden of the majority of modern built properties.
