How to Obtain Smooth Sandstone Paving

  • Initial Cutting: Place the sandstone block on the bed of the saw machine and cut it into roughly uniform-thickness slabs.
  • Rough Grinding: Roughly grind the top surface of each slab to achieve a smoother surface. The bottom surface remains the normal sawn surface.
  • Slab Selection: Remove the particularly thin slabs and use a calibrated machine to efficiently cut the particularly thick slabs uniform in thickness with a groove bottom.
  • Precision Cutting: Use the infrared saw machine to cut the processed nominal uniform thickness slabs into the desired specifications.
  • Packaging and Inspection: During packaging, approx. 5-10% of the bottom surfaces of the slabs may still be grooved, approx. 90-95% of the bottom surface is sawn.

⚠️ Paving Slabs UK Expert Advice:

Sandstone is naturally porous, and water staining effects are more pronounced when in a honed smooth finished state. To mitigate this, we advise sealing the undersides of all sawn sandstone paving with SBR adhesive prior to installation, ensuring uniform application and complete drying to establish a chemical barrier between the cement mixture and the natural paving stone. Furthermore, apply Lithofin Stain Stop W sealer to the top and sides to prevent any staining.

Due to the relatively low density of sandstone, the sawn edges of sawn and honed smooth sandstone tend to be sharp, unlike hand-chiseled edges. Chipping can occur frequently, which no stone company can completely avoid. If customers are particularly concerned about chipping, we recommend avoiding the purchase of smooth sandstone with sawn edges. Alternatively, with the owner's consent, they can visit a local store and pay an additional fee to handpick the stones. In such cases, the cost is typically around twice the regular price.

How to Handle Chipping Issues of Smooth Sandstone:

When laying the paving, you don’t need to worry about whether the slabs have chipping. After completing the paving project and filling the joints with Joint It Simple, you can address any chipping.

Take any used or discarded slabs and crush them into a fine powder using a hammer. Mix this powder with stone adhesive to create a paste. Use this paste to fill in the chipped edges, restoring their original shape. This method not only allows builders to repair chipping effectively but also enables homeowners to use the same technique for future repairs if chipping occurs from usage.
