Because natural stone paving is porous, we recommend sealing your stone slabs to reduce moisture absorption. Our Meli Limestone Paving saves you that task, as it is manufactured and delivered pre-sealed with a water-based, breathable sealer.
This treatment provides an initial protective layer to help reduce the impact of moisture, staining from spillages, and general wear and tear. This also helps enhance and maintain the colour, appearance and performance of your paving slabs for years to come.
High-quality products are only half the story at George Davies; expert delivery and aftercare are just as important. From your first enquiry to the moment your Meli Limestone Slim-Setts arrives, our friendly team looks after every customer.

Sawn limestone has cleaner, sharper and more precise edges, creating linear and more uniform joints – ideal for modern designs. Tumbled limestone has softer, more natural, and weathered-looking edges that add character and work well in traditional spaces.
Meli Dark Grey Limestone Slim-Setts are pre-sealed. This means they already have a protective layer to reduce moisture absorption, staining and everyday dirt. You can add an additional sealant layer if you wish.

No. Thanks to the pre-sealant coating, Meli Limestone has a high slip resistance when wet or dry. The Pendulum Test Value (PTV) for Meli Limestone stands at 62 dry and 50 wet for excellent grip.
Proper ground preparation and installation will help your natural limestone setts stay secure and look their best for years to come.
Follow these 6 easy steps to install Meli limestone like a pro.
Measure and mark the area where you’ll install the slim setts, then excavate to the required depth.
The depth should include the thickness of the setts as well as the subbase and mortar levels.
Using a spirit level, ensure the area you’re installing the limestone setts has suitable drainage.
This should include a slope (or fall) of 1:80 away from any buildings or structures.
Compact the ground and add a 30- 50 mm permeable drain mortar layer.
Alternatively, you can create a sharp sand and cement mix with a suitable bonding agent for the setts to adhere firmly to the subbase.
Following your pre-planned pattern, start in the middle and work your way out, keeping a 5-10mm gap between each sett.
Apply the appropriate bonding primer to the underside of the sett, then place it into position and tap it gently with a rubber mallet. Use a spirit level as you go to ensure they are level.
Once all the setts are laid, use a patio grout such as Azpects EasyJoint to fill the joints. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for a uniform and secure finish.
Use a non-acid stone cleaner to remove any installation residue. Apply a suitable natural stone sealer to reduce water absorption, protect the stone’s performance and appearance, and help extend its lifespan.
For the best results, we recommend using Azpects EasyJoint or EasyJoint Select to fill the joints between setts. Both options offer excellent durability, easy application, and a professional finish that complements the natural look of limestone setts.
