Step 1 Choosing natural stones of your choice
  • Natural stone comes in various shapes and sizes
    to suit all your budgets and environment. Hence,
    before choosing natural stones of your choice you
    must analyse the kind of environment you have and
    consider minor detailing like walls, patio
    designs and topography of your garden or
    poolside.
  • After analyzing, choose the type of natural
    stones you want, be it British Sandstone Paving,
    Concrete Paving, Granite Paving, Raj Mint Stone
    Paving, Marble Paving, Natural Stone Steps, Patio
    Jointing or slate paving. The best way to choose
    the best design is by asking a landscaper to
    choose the best quality of stones which are also
    affordable and will last longer.

Step 2 Preparation
  • For any outdoor project, forward planning is
    necessary in order to save time and expenses. Get
    along with the stone pavers youve appointed and
    go through the design sheets they have prepared,
    this will give you an idea about how it will look
    and where your natural stone tiles will go. The
    thickness of the slabs youve chosen depends upon
    the depth being allowed for bedding the mortar.
    Now, analyse if the pavers if your patio is going
    against the house, if it is then it might cause
    water pooling during rains.

The placement of natural stone slabs
  • How the stones are being paved for the first row
    of your patio as it will act as a guide for rest
    of the stones. After the first layer of stones is
    being done, it is left to rest for a short period
    of time so that the mortar hardens and sets
    firmly and the paver has a strong base. Hence,
    make sure that the stones being placed are in the
    right pattern and there are no gaps left between
    two stones. Meanwhile, while placing the second
    layer of natural stones, keep checking if the
    patios of levelled, if not then ask the pavers to
    make the adjustments.
