Bluestone Paving
1 September 2010
When selecting the right stone paving product for your outdoor entertaining area, pool surround, driveway or pathways you have to consider 3 key factors:
Firstly, the stone paving has to be safe and suitable for purpose- e.g. slip resistance, salt safe if used around a pool.
Secondly, the stone, be it sandstone, travertine, granite, slate, castlemaine slate or bluestone, must be durable and capable of dealing with the demands of foot and or vehicle traffic and must be capable of being easily maintained to ensure the picture created is as good tomorrow as it is today.
And thirdly, your selected sandstone, travertine, granite, slate, Castlemaine Slate or bluestone must look stunning. Paving to a pool surround, outdoor el freco area, driveway etc will form a considerable part of the entire landscape project and will provide the finish to any job. Colour, shape and size, and even the surface texture of the stone paving are all important factors to be considered.
