Each paver is made from natural sandstone, meaning it has unique mineral deposits, tonal variations, veining, and a naturally riven surface texture that differs from every other stone.
While 'Autumn Green' refers to a specific shade range, natural sandstone will always have variations. Some pavers may be lighter, darker, or have more prominent veining than others within the same batch. This is part of the product's natural appeal.
Sealing is highly recommended. It helps protect the sandstone from staining, prevents efflorescence, and can enhance the natural colors. It should be reapplied periodically, typically every 2-3 years.
These paving slabs are intended for pedestrian use only (patios, pathways). They are not designed to withstand the weight and stress of vehicle traffic. For driveways, specific driveway paving solutions should be used.
Regular sweeping is essential. For cleaning, use a stiff brush with plain water. For tougher dirt or stains, use a pH-neutral cleaner specifically designed for natural stone. Avoid harsh chemicals or acidic cleaners.
The Autumn Green shade is available in single sizes of 900x600mm, 600x600mm, 600x300mm, and 300x300mm, as well as 8.15m² patio packs and circle packs.
Weeds can be removed manually or by using a weed-killing solution suitable for patio areas. Keeping joints well-filled with sand or jointing compound helps minimize weed growth.
Ensure the sub-base was adequately compacted and the mortar bed was consistent. Minor adjustments can be made by carefully lifting and re-bedding individual pavers.
Identify the type of stain. For organic stains (leaves, moss), use a mild detergent and water. For oil-based stains, use a specific stone degreaser. Prompt cleaning is key. Consider sealing the pavers to prevent future stains.
This is a natural process where salts migrate to the surface. It usually weathers away over time. If persistent, a specific efflorescence remover can be used cautiously.
Sweep regularly and clean with a stiff brush. Use a dedicated moss and algae remover for sandstone if the problem persists. Ensure good drainage around the patio to minimize dampness.
