Natural Stone Paving

Urban Paving’s range of handcrafted Indian Sandstone is sourced from the highest quality mines in India. Each individual paving stone is unique in both texture and colour. They present a harmonious blend of subtle natural tones within a controlled colour palette. This Indian Sandstone will introduce a timeless aspect of quality and longevity to your outdoor or indoor area.

Indian Sandstone paving is available in eight unique and natural colours. Each has its own charms and characteristics, from a stormy cloud shade or a gentle walnut tone, to a warm rich chocolate or a striking unsuspecting black.

All colour reproductions printed on this brochure are as close as possible to the original, however some variations will occur due in product colour and shading, aggregate variability and due to the printing process.

There are four main textures to choose from, the Natural Split has a bold texture that blends beautifully in an outdoor area and is the most popular choice in New Zealand. The Honed Sandstone is beautifully smooth, but non-slip and can be used in both indoors and outdoors. Antique is rustic and almost Italian in look with soft rounded edges, and the Shot-blast sandstone is coarser and more rustic for a perfectly aged and classic look.

The table below details the colour and texture variation (for Natural Split texture) and size availability for the different choice of pavers. It is important to remember there is variation in this product, which is all part of its’ charm and appeal.

Many homeowners choose Indian Sandstone pavers for their pool, entertaining areas and pathways because of its natural beauty and subtle style. Urban Paving can provide bull nosed pavers for the soft edges around pools and steps, and can bull nose on more than one side as requested.

 

 

If you desire a classic cobbled driveway then ask about our Indian setts – these are natural black cobbles that have been used for centuries in England. They are available in any of the colours, but the most popular is the black limestone or black granite. They come in a shallower 40-60mm for borders around a pool or patio, - or a deeper 80-100mm for driveways.

 

 

Sometimes you can not look past the beauty of New Zealand. Urban Paving have contracts with quarries around the South Island to market and distribute their natural stone paving.

There is the Waitaha Split Paving that brings a depth and quality, an untamed element that can only be found here from our own South Island West Coast. This largely underutilised stone is a sparkling grey colour which is stunning for walling, outdoor living areas, pathways, pool and fire surrounds. It comes in random shapes and sizes from 300mm up to 650mm.

The Waitaha Stepping Stones are also from the West Coast and are a sparkling grey colour. They are of circular shape, ranging in size from 400mm to 550mm and are very popular for garden pathways.
