Sandstone Fireplace Hearths

Sandstone is an excellent choice for a hearth stone. There are several reasons for this, but the key reason sandstone is such a great choice is that it is a natural insulator, which will efficiently help keep your home warm in the winter.

Sandstone Hearths: Natural Beauty for Fireplace Designs

Bring warmth and character into your home with our collection of premium sandstone hearths. Crafted from durable, hand-selected stone, each hearth slab showcases unique colour variations and organic texture, making it the perfect centrepiece for any fireplace — whether traditional or contemporary.

Sandstone hearths offer a softer, more rustic alternative to slate. Their subtle tones and natural finish suit both classic country interiors and more modern settings looking for a touch of earthy charm. Available in a range of sizes and finishes, they’re ideal for use beneath wood-burning stoves, open fires, or as feature baseplates in log stores and garden rooms.

All of our hearths are carefully cut for ease of installation and are compatible with UK building regulations. Whether you're undertaking a full renovation or simply upgrading your fireplace surround, our sandstone hearths provide a stylish and practical solution.

FAQs

Are sandstone hearths safe for wood-burning, multi-fuel and gas stoves?

Yes. Sandstone is naturally fire-safe, so you can use it with wood-burning, multi-fuel or gas stoves—just have your installer keep to the correct gap and thickness.

Do I need to seal a sandstone hearth?

Definitely. A penetrating sealer blocks stains and makes cleaning easier; top it up every 1–2 years. We can pre-seal for you.

How heat-resistant is sandstone?

Sandstone happily tolerates domestic fireplace temperatures without warping or spalling.

Do You Provide Samples Before I Order a Custom Hearth?

Yes, we offer samples before you place a full order. You can order samples through our samples page to get a feel for the material and finish. This allows you to make sure you're happy with the look and texture before committing to your custom hearth.

What Happens if My Order Arrives Damaged?

If your order arrives damaged, please contact us immediately. We’ll require photos of the damaged items and packaging to process your claim. Once we’ve reviewed the images, we’ll arrange for a replacement or refund, depending on the situation.

Ready Made Slate Hearths
Fantastic service, price and quality

Having trawled the maze of suppliers online I was delighted to find Primethorpe Paving, compared with others the products were easy to find giving simple access to dimensions and prices etc. As my product knowledge was limited i thought I would call before confirming my order as a little out of my depth on grate purchasing!! I was so impressed, he talked me through the types of stone and the effect i was looking for, I made my purchase and the delivery was seamless. Thank you
