Porcelain Patios

With porcelain paving, getting your patio ready for the summer sun is an absolute breeze.

There’s no need for industrial cleaning chemicals or a complicated jet washer, you can get your porcelain pavers pristine armed only with a sponge and a bucket of soapy water. Better still, you only need to complete this simple cleaning routine 2 or 3 times a year to keep your porcelain patio slabs sparkling through the seasons.

While other types of paving, such as natural stone and concrete pavers, require you to add sealant during the installation process to protect from water-based stains, you can skip this fiddly step entirely when you lay porcelain paving slabs.

Porcelain patios are naturally non-porous, meaning water does not soak through the pavers. So, whether you’re dealing with barbecue grease or muddy footprints, tough stains and spills wipe away with ease on porcelain paving. This also means you can save an extra couple of quid on buying expensive sealants!

In addition to naturally protecting from unsightly stains, porcelain paving’s non-porous characteristics also protect against erosion beneath the surface of the slab.

With other porous pavers, water can soak through the material and erode the foundation of your patio, which can cause pavers to become loose in their formation. Porcelain paving slabs experience no such problems as water cannot penetrate its refined composite structure, keeping your patio strong and secure

Due to its highly technical manufacturing process, porcelain pavers are extremely hard-wearing and one of the most durable paving options on the market.

Severe weather conditions, sticky stains and spillages, rogue plants and vegetation – none of these potential hazards will leave a lasting mark on your pristine porcelain patio. This makes porcelain paving slabs the perfect choice for paved areas that experience a lot of footfall!
