Delivery FAQs



 

Preparation

  • Measure and Mark: Start by measuring and marking the dimensions of your patio for clarity.
  • Excavate: Dig out the designated patio area to a depth of 200mm to accommodate the sub-base and mortar.

Installation Guide

  • Install the Sub-Base: Lay a compacted sub-base, ensuring it reaches a depth of 150mm for a sturdy foundation.
  • Create the Mortar Bed: Mix sharp sand and cement to form a mortar bed approximately 25mm thick.
  • Position the Slabs:
    • Apply Primer to the Slab. We recommend using EasyPrime to coat the underside of each slab with a minimum of 2mm layer of primer. Use a trowel or roller to apply the primer evenly across the back of the slab.
    • Gently place each sandstone slab onto the mortar bed and tap it into position with a rubber mallet. Check that each slab is level and aligned with adjacent slabs, ensuring consistent spacing between joints for a clean, uniform look.
  • Curing Time: Allow the mortar bed to cure for a minimum of 24 hours after laying the slabs.
  • Joint Filling: Once cured, fill the joints between the slabs with pointing for a finished look.

After Care

  • Sealing: After installation, apply a coat of EASYSeal SSP (Stone Sealer & Protector) for long-term protection. This water-based, invisible sealer protects the stone from water, oil, and dirt without altering its natural appearance.
  • Regular Cleaning: Clean your sandstone patio regularly to prevent dirt and moss buildup. Use a mild detergent and a soft brush to avoid damaging the stone. (This should be done with a non-acidic cleaner to ensure your natural stone is not damaged)
  • Pointing Maintenance: Periodically check the pointing for any cracks and repair them to maintain the patio’s integrity.

What is the best method for cutting natural sandstone?

Use a wet saw with a diamond blade or an angle grinder, secure the stone, and make slow, controlled cuts along your marked lines, finishing with a grinding tool to smooth any rough edges.


What Joint Width Should I Use with Natural Paving?

We recommend using a joint width of 8-10mm for optimal results in natural paving. Fill the joints with either Azpects EasyJoint or Azpects EasyJoint Select to ensure a long-lasting and stable installation.
