Product Information

Full details

The Borderstone Natural Stone Round Paving Stone is an ideal choice for homeowners and landscapers looking to add a soft, sophisticated aesthetic to contemporary garden designs. These durable stones are perfect for creating unique, curved pathways or distinctive patio features, with their charcoal colouring providing deep, modern contrast. While they offer exceptional longevity and style, users should note that the rounded shape requires more deliberate planning and precise spacing compared to standard square pavers to ensure a balanced, professional finish.

FAQs

Are these stones suitable for driveways?

These are primarily designed for pedestrian pathways and patio features; they are not recommended for areas subject to vehicular traffic.

Can I use these in a high-moisture garden area?

Yes, natural stone is durable in damp environments, but ensure good drainage beneath the paving to prevent standing water.

How do I cut the stones to fit a specific shape?

Use a heavy-duty angle grinder fitted with a diamond-tipped masonry blade, ensuring you wear appropriate safety gear.

Will the grey colour fade over time?

As a natural stone product, they are colorfast, though they will develop a natural patina over many years of weather exposure.

How many stones do I need for my area?

Calculate your total square meterage and add 10% for cuts and wastage, then divide by the coverage area of a single stone.

Troubleshooting

Stones appearing loose after installation

Ensure the bedding layer is sufficiently compacted and check that the mortar between joints has cured properly.

Visible surface stains or moss

Use a specialized natural stone cleaner and a soft-bristled brush to gently scrub the surface before rinsing with water.

Difficulty achieving a straight path

Use a string line for the centerline of the path and plan the curvature spacing before committing to the mortar bed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal results, ensure a firm sub-base of crushed stone or MOT Type 1, followed by a layer of sharp sand or a wet mortar mix for bedding. When laying, maintain a consistent gap between stones for jointing; a flexible pointing mortar is recommended to accommodate natural thermal expansion. To maintain the stones, simply wash them periodically with a mild detergent and a stiff brush to remove moss or dirt buildup. Avoid using high-pressure power washers at close range, as this can dislodge the pointing mortar between the stones over time.
