More About Outdoor Pavers
Outdoor Pavers are multipurpose and robust building materials, used in residential and commercial spaces. Natural stone pavers are popular for landscaping and hardscaping projects due to their durability and resistance to wear and tear. They are available in many materials, sizes, colours and textures to fit all design applications. Outdoor Pavers are perfect for areas such as patios, alfresco, backyards, courtyards, gardens, barbeque areas and pool surrounds. Pavers with a thickness of 30mm or more are well-suited for high-traffic areas such as pathways, walkways and driveways.
They can create several paving styles for outdoor spaces. One is a conventional method that features a regular grid pattern. Other styles that give a unique and eye-catching look to your space are French Pattern and Crazy Paving.
Outdoor Pavers are available in Granite, Travertine, Limestone, Sandstone, Bluestone and Marble. Each of them, with its unique appearance and quality offers endless design possibilities to transform your outdoor areas.
Paving Styles with Outdoor Pavers
- French Pattern: In a French Pattern, Outdoor Pavers of six different sizes are placed in an attractive interlock pattern. This style breaks the monotony of the regular grid pattern and offers a neat and spacious look to your space. French Pattern elevates the overall look of your design. It works well for outdoor areas such as patios, alfresco or pool decks.
- Crazy Pavers: The irregular layout created using random pieces of naturally broken stones is known as Crazy Paving. This outdoor paving technique is quite popular in Australia. It offers infinite design possibilities to create stunning aesthetics for your outdoor space.
Crazy Pavers create a unique pattern and accentuate patios, alfresco, garden paths, backyards, courtyards and pool surrounds.
Finishes Available in Outdoor Pavers
- Honed: Honing is a process in which the paver surface is buffed to give it an even and smooth appearance. It provides a matte finish, giving the stone a sleek and modern look.
- Exfoliated: This finish is achieved by using a flame over the surface of the stone. This can only be achieved with Granite. It gives the stone its heat-resistant properties and makes it suitable for outdoor paving applications.
- Brushed: To get this finish a hard synthetic material or metal is brushed against the surface of the pavers to give it a textured and matte look.
- Sandblasted: This finish is achieved by blasting the paver with sand, giving it a rough and textured look. It is an excellent choice for creating a slip-resistant surface, making it ideal for pool applications.
- Natural Split: This finish is achieved by splitting the paver along its natural seams, giving it a rugged and textured look.
Design Applications of Outdoor Pavers:
- Outdoor Kitchen: Outdoor Pavers are an excellent option as they are durable and heat resistant. Whether you use them as countertops, backsplash or flooring, they provide an elegant natural look and make for a stunning family entertainment area.

Whether made of limestone or travertine, these outdoor pavers all have the same thickness.
3. What are the different finishes of outdoor pavers?
Outdoor paving stones come in different finishes such as Honed, Sandblasted, Exfoliated, and Natural Split.
4. Are there colour options available for outdoor pavers?
Various colour options are available in outdoor pavers, such as beige, silver, white, black, grey and multi-colour.
5. Do outdoor pavers require high maintenance?
Not really. The only thing to ensure is to seal the products during installation. Also, one should reseal them every 2-3 years, besides cleaning them regularly.
6. Where can outdoor pavers be used?
Any outdoor project places, such as pool surrounds, pool coping, verandas, backyards, patios, alfresco, pathways, and roads, can be finished with outdoor pavers. You may buy outdoor pavers in the following sizes: 610x406x30mm, 610x610x30mm, 406x406x30mm, and 30mm French Pattern, depending on the project’s space needs. Thanks to these outdoor pavers and tiles, your home will have an earthy, natural look and feel.
7. Do you recommend a specific material for outdoor pavers?
Various stone materials, including Travertine, Sandstone, Limestone, Granite, Marble, and Bluestone, are offered as outdoor pavers. There isn’t just one type of material that is advised; instead, varied uses depending on the project. For instance, outdoor Travertine, Limestone, and Bluestone pavers are appropriate for patios, walks, pool surrounds, and pool coping. On the other hand, Granite outdoor pavers are suggested for driveways with high foot traffic.
8. Do I need to seal the outdoor pavers?
Every natural stone must be sealed. Although it is not technically essential, waterproofing outdoor pavers have several benefits. However, sealing is advised as one of the finest procedures. It depends on your expectations for outdoor pavers and how long you want them to remain beautiful. Unsealed outdoor pavers are more prone to develop weeds in the joints, fade, and lose colour from wear and UV damage.
9. How many coats of sealant are required on outdoor pavers?
More isn’t necessarily better when waterproofing outdoor pavers. You want adequate coverage while painting your house or the interior walls of your home, which isn’t usually the case with an outdoor paver sealer. According to industry experts, all natural stone, including outside pavers, should receive two sealer coatings. The outdoor pavers may be coated completely using the dip sealing procedure by soaking them in water. After that, you may apply a second sealing coat to the exterior pavers.
10. Can outdoor pavers get stained?
Natural stone patio pavers need to be sealed. They are likely to become soiled if left open if wine or other liquid spills. For stain resistance, we always advise sealing.
11. What is the best paver for a driveway?
Granite pavers are the perfect choice for your driveway. Their natural beauty and durability make them the perfect long-term solution for your outdoor space. Granite pavers are strong, so they can handle heavy vehicles, while their non-porous surface makes them hard-wearing and resistant to stains. Moreover, they come in various styles and colours to suit any design or taste.
12. What are the best pavers for the outdoors?
Travertine, Limestone, Marble and Sandstone are the best pavers for outdoor areas. We have a vast range of outdoor pavers in a variety of colours and textures perfectly suited for every design space and requirement. Our premium quality natural stone pavers offer a luxurious look to your space while providing excellent durability and longevity. Whether you're looking to upgrade your patio or poolside, these pavers are the perfect option for adding value and sophistication to your outdoor areas.
13. What is the cheapest DIY patio?
Slatestone, a stunning and durable material is extremely wallet-friendly and gives you ample design possibilities to transform your patio on a budget. With a few simple tools and a bit of DIY know-how, you can create a beautiful patio space for a fraction of the cost of hiring a professional.
14. What is the best base for Outdoor Pavers?
The choice of the base will depend on the climate of your region and the intended use of the space. However, the commonly used base is a mix of gravel, crushed stones and sand. Having a proper base is essential to set the pavers in place and ensure the stability of the stone for a long time.
