Porcelain paving with a textured, slip-resistant surface. The finish to specify for anywhere that gets wet and stays wet: around a pool, on steps, or a shaded patio that holds damp through winter. These are the non slip paving slabs to choose where the surface has to stay safe in the wet — rated R11, and available across most of the colours we stock.

Before porcelain took over, riven Indian sandstone was the nation's favourite paving — hard-wearing, naturally slip-resistant, with subtle tonal variation no two slabs share. It is still a genuine choice: cheaper up front and lovely underfoot, though as a porous stone it benefits from sealing on lay and every few years. We keep it as our heritage range.
Most customers now choose porcelain for the lower upkeep — but if you love natural stone, order a sandstone sample and compare the two in your own garden light. Samples are £0.98 each, posted next working day.
Our Porcelain vs sandstone and Sandstone laying guide guides walk you through the choice.
