MAINTENANCE GUIDE

When installing Porcelain paving please ensure that you use Pro-prime to help bond the slabs to the sub-base, this product is available at all Natural Stone and Timber branches.

We recommend that a porcelain tile seal is used on all dark paving products to reduce staining and to help with maintenance.

Please be aware that marks and everyday dirt will be more visible on Dark / Black paving products.

Do Porcelain Paving Slabs Fade?

As a rule no porcelain paving slabs do not fade, but over very long periods of time in sunny areas and with considerable weathering you could expect to see some slight changes to the appearance of the surface of the slabs.

Can You Cut Porcelain Paving?

Yes, our Porcelain Paving can be cut easily, but you will require a very good quality diamond blade made especially for 20mm Porcelain paving slabs. European & Italian Porcelain paving cuts a lot better than India porcelain due to the improved production processes making them less brittle and prone to chipping, but due to its increased density, it can take longer.

Can You Seal Porcelain Paving?

Yes, it can be advisable to seal Porcelain Paving. This will further reduce porosity and keep any maintenance to an absolute minimum, but it is not essential and is basically a personal choice.

Does Porcelain Paving Stain?

It is possible to stain Porcelain Paving but it’s very difficult due to its very low porosity. Porcelain paving can be sealed to further help prevent staining in areas prone to spillages.

Does Porcelain Paving Scratch Easily?

No Porcelain Paving does not scratch easily, it is an extremely dense material that is very hard to damage once installed. If the surface of Porcelain is damaged or scratch it is not possible to repair, so we would also recommend keeping a couple of extra slabs hidden in your garden just in case of future problems.

Are Porcelain Paving Slabs Low Maintenance?

Yes, Porcelain slabs are incredibly low maintenance, they have very low porosity of 0.5% minimising dirt penetration into the surface meaning in normal situations no more than a general clean will ever be necessary.

Is Porcelain Paving Any Good?

Yes we believe we offer the best possible quality Porcelain paving that will far exceed any domestic requirements and will, if correctly installed, last for decades without requiring anything but general cleaning and maintenance.

Is Porcelain Paving Hard To Lay?

Porcelain paving is a very hard and precisely manufactured products, so some additional knowledge is needed to handle this material correctly, but any well experienced landscape contractor with the correct tools will not have any problems installing any of our products.

Are Porcelain Paving Slabs Expensive?

Porcelain paving has become very competitively priced within the UK market, with a high quality Polish or Italian Porcelain product priced competitively against inferior imported porcelain and natural stone products. We would always recommend installing the best possible Porcelain Paving slabs you can afford as the actual costs of the paving materials itself, is only a fraction of the overall installation cost, and is the thing you will be left looking at for many years to come.

Are Porcelain Paving Slabs Slippery?

All paving that is used within the UK must be R11 slip rated to meet the current British standard for paving materials. All our Porcelain Paving products have been tested and meet or exceed these standards.
