Troubleshooting

Uneven surface after installation

Check that the bedding layer was consistent and compacted correctly. Minor adjustments can be made by carefully lifting and re-bedding individual setts.

Weeds growing between setts

Ensure joints are fully filled with kiln-dried sand or appropriate jointing compound. Remove weeds manually or with a weed killer specifically designed for paved areas. Re-sand joints as needed.

Discoloration or staining

Identify the source of the stain. For general grime, clean with water and a mild detergent. For specific stains (e.g., oil), use a specialized stone cleaner suitable for sandstone. Test any cleaner in an inconspicuous area first.

Sett movement or loosening

This usually indicates issues with the sub-base or bedding layer. For minor movement, re-bedding may suffice. For significant movement, a review and potential relaying of the affected area may be necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These setts require a properly prepared sub-base to ensure stability and longevity. This typically involves excavation, laying and compacting a layer of MOT Type 1 aggregate, and then a bedding layer of sand or grit. Lay the setts on this bedding layer, ensuring consistent joint spacing. For driveways, a robust sub-base is crucial.

Compatibility:

The Marshalls Fairstone Setts are compatible with most standard landscaping and paving practices. They can be used independently or in conjunction with other Marshalls paving products. Ensure adequate drainage is considered in the design.

Care:

To maintain their appearance, regular sweeping to remove debris is recommended. For cleaning, use a stiff brush with water and a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the natural stone surface. In areas prone to moss or algae, a specific stone cleaner might be necessary. Re-sanding of joints may be required periodically.
