FAQ

 

Q1: Will the color of black slate fade over time?
A: Slate is naturally durable. With proper sealing and maintenance, its deep charcoal color stays rich for many years, even in outdoor settings.

 

Q2: Is slate paving slippery when wet?
A: The riven (split) surface provides natural grip, making it safer in wet conditions. For pool areas, we recommend riven or brushed finishes instead of honed.

 

Q3: Can I order mixed sizes for random paving patterns?
A: Yes. We can supply single sizes or "project packs" with mixed sizes for free layouts. Just let us know your preferred design.

 

Q4: Do the stones need sealing?
A: Sealing is recommended, especially for outdoor areas, to reduce water absorption and protect against staining.

 

Q5: What's the delivery time?
A: Standard orders usually take 2–3 weeks. Custom orders may take a bit longer, depending on finish and size.
