With 18 ranges to pick from, the useful question is not whether to go grey but which grey. Start with the shade. Light greys keep a small or shaded garden feeling open and are the safer choice against dark brickwork or black window frames. Mid greys are the most forgiving and sit comfortably with almost any house colour. Darker greys give a sharper, more contemporary look but need light coming into the space to work. Then think about finish, because the range splits roughly in two. Stone effect ranges like Kandla Grey and Frame Light Grey carry a lightly riven surface and natural variation, so they suit period properties and planted gardens. Concrete effect ranges like Portland Plata are smoother and more uniform, which works with render, cladding and modern extensions. Formats run from 600 x 600 up to 1200 x 600, with larger slabs meaning fewer joint lines and a calmer looking patio. Every range here is 20mm thick with an R11 finish, so the decision really does come down to shade, texture and format.

FAQs

What Is Porcelain Paving made from?

Porcelain paving is created by baking a mixture of clay, sand and other minerals. These are then put into a high-temperature kiln. From this, an incredibly durable and non-porous material is created; known as porcelain paving.

How does Porcelain Paving compare to Natural Stone?

No one can deny the beauty of natural stone paving. However, here at Primethorpe Paving, we genuinely believe that porcelain paving is an even more appealing and longer-lasting paving option.

We feel that porcelain flags boast characteristics that make them superior to natural stone, for indoor or outdoor installation. Unlike natural stone, porcelain paving slabs require minimal maintenance. They are moisture-resistant without sealant, and they don’t impact the environment as much as natural stone paving either.

How do I lay Porcelain Paving?

Porcelain paving needs to be laid on a full mortar bed using a porcelain-specific primer or slurry to help it bond properly. Unlike natural stone, porcelain doesn't absorb water, so standard methods won't work. See our porcelain paving laying guide for more information.

How do I maintain and clean Porcelain Paving?

Porcelain is one of the easiest paving materials to look after. It doesn't need sealing and won't stain easily, so a regular sweep and an occasional wash with soapy water is usually enough to keep it looking good. For tougher marks, a pressure washer on a low setting works well.

Is Porcelain Paving slippery?

Outdoor porcelain paving tiles are designed to be non-slip, with a textured surface that provides grip even when wet. All our porcelain has an R11 anti-slip rating, which makes it safe for patios, paths, and areas around pools.
