Why Light Grey Porcelain Paving is a Versatile Choice for Outdoor Spaces

1. Why Light Grey Porcelain Paving is a Versatile Choice for Outdoor Spaces?

2. Natural stone has been the default material for exterior paving for some time, and when you consider the many and varied positive properties of stone this is something that is easy to understand. There can be no doubt that stone provides a durable, hard wearing paved surface that is naturally non-slip and draws the beauty of nature into your outdoor space.

3. But in many ways stone could be said to be a victim of its own success because its popularity has made it a rather commonplace material. You might decide that you would like something that is a little more distinctive especially if the rural idyl is not really your “thing”. • If your preference leans more towards an urban aesthetic you might choose a material that has the same durability, practicality and good looks but a more modern, more urban feel than natural stone – a material that can be rural or urban, rugged or chic. In short, a material with the versatility to do whatever you want it to do.

4. Does such a material exist? We are happy to say that it does. Grey porcelain slabs – indeed porcelain paving slabs of any colour – offer you all the benefits that have made natural sandstone so popular, but with a more contemporary, sleeker, urban look. • Light grey porcelain paving delivers the same incredible durability as limestone – in fact if anything the durability of porcelain is greater because the surface is fired to be significantly harder and less porous than stone.

5. This durability is not the only property that porcelain paving shares with stone. Porcelain paving slabs are also very easy to keep in perfect condition. Just like stone porcelain demands nothing more taxing of you than a spray down with a power washer to keep them looking like new for decades to come. • Because the surface of the porcelain is so incredibly hard porcelain paving is scratch resistant, repels stains and resists mould. Nothing that normal use can throw at it will damage porcelain paving slabs.

6. And of course, those easy to maintain good looks are another versatile attribute of porcelain paving. After all, stone is always stone coloured. Porcelain slabs can be produced in any colour you might desire.

7. Grey Porcelain Paving is the most popular style right now but because porcelain paving is made rather than quarried you can select from a range of stylish colours and surface finishes. With porcelain your outdoor space can be light and airy or darkly urban – the control is absolutely in your hands. • If all that were not enough our porcelain paving also boasts an R-11 anti-slip rating. Making tour paths or patios with this material makes slips and falls in the wet significantly less likely – given the British climate this is a very important advantage. This “not slippery when wet” property also makes porcelain the perfect paving for pool side areas.

8. As the British summer becomes increasingly prone to heatwaves backyard pools are becoming much more popular, so a paving solution that is safe when wet is useful all year around. • Porcelain paving slabs are also thermally very stable, which is a side effect of their high density. This means that porcelain slabs heat up very slowly, even in very strong direct sunlight which helps to keep your outdoor space cool in the harshest of heatwaves. When the weather goes the other way this density and low water absorption helps these remarkable tiles to resist the harshest of frosts.

9. Porcelain paving is the most versatile paving product. Beautiful, practical, easy to maintain and incredibly durable. The possibilities presented by porcelain paving are truly endless.
