Product description

Crisp lines, a tight-grain and the rich pattern in Black Granite Paving deliver understated elegance to modern designs. Sawn on six sides and with a sandblasted and brushed, non-slip surface, these granite paving slabs are an extremely hard-wearing material. This granite has a very slight sparkle that enriches its very consistent charcoal-grey colouring. We recommend that all customers read our product & installation guides and view our colour variation boards before buying.

About Black Granite Paving

Overview

Granite is an igneous rock composed of interlocking crystals of feldspar, quartz, and mica. Extremely hard-wearing, durable, and resistant to weathering, it is a popular choice for driveways, high-traffic areas, or gardens with demanding environments.

Natural Characteristics

Black Granite will contain natural blemishes, veining, and small holes, all of which are characteristics of natural stone.

Receiving Your Delivery

Sawn stones can contain small chips to the corners and edges. This is an unavoidable result of the production, handling and transportation process and is not considered a defect. Most small chips are unnoticeable after the stone has been installed and pointed. On arrival, sawn stones can also display residual moisture and may need cleaning and drying before installation or pre-sealing.

Dimensional Tolerance

London Stone recommends ordering an additional 10% to allow for wastage, cuts, and the occasional piece which you may not like the look of. London Stone will not refund, or exchange stone based on variation in colour, texture, natural characteristics, or small chips.

Distribution of Slabs

It is advisable to sort through all crates on arrival so that colour variation can be distributed evenly throughout the paved area. At this point, any slabs with heavier chipping, colour variation or markings can be set aside to be used as cuts or wastage.

Slide to view

Stone looks very different when wet and dry. In its dry state, the color may seem more subdued, and the surface texture appears prominent, but once water is applied, the product’s colour becomes more vibrant, and hidden patterns are revealed.

Use our wet, dry tool to make a well-informed decision of how stone looks in various weather conditions.

Sealing

Sealing

We strongly recommend all sawn stone is pre-sealed prior to installation. Please be advised that pre-sealing carries an additional lead-time. This can be viewed on the product page, once pre-sealing is selected as an option.

Why pre-seal?

  • Reduces the need for intensive maintenance
  • Reduces weathering and keeps stone looking fresh
  • Protects from algae and staining
  • Reduces efflorescence
  • Stone arrives on site ready to install.

How to pre-seal

  • On site by your own contractor
  • Pre-sealed by London Stone’s specialist team from just £15.76 + VAT per m2
  • For more information, visit our pre-sealing information hub
