FAQs - Kandla Grey Sandstone

Do Kandla Grey Slabs Have Consistent Thickness?

Typically, these slabs are calibrated to a thickness of 22mm or 18mm. However, due to the natural properties of Sandstone, there can be a tolerance of up to +/- 3mm

What Is The Edge Detail On These Sandstone Pavers?

The edge detail is hand-dressed, meaning each edge is carefully chipped by hand to create a natural, textured look. This gives the paving a rustic, timeless appearance, perfect for traditional or natural designs.

What Makes Primethorpe Kandla Grey Better Than Others?

The colour tones and surface finish are among the best available, offering a consistent and attractive grey with subtle variations that enhance its natural beauty. While sourcing from this quarry costs us more, the superior quality and finish are absolutely worth the extra investment, ensuring long-lasting durability and a premium look for your project.

Will wet stone look different in colour?

Yes, natural stone often appears darker when wet because water enhances its natural colour and pattern. This effect is temporary and returns to normal as the stone dries.

How Much Colour Variation Will There Be?

In Kandla Grey, there is minimal colour variation. While the shades of grey may vary slightly, the overall colour will remain consistent within the grey spectrum. You can expect a subtle variation in tones, but it will always be within the grey range.
