Why Choose Porcelain Paving?
Porcelain paving outperforms natural stone in durability, stain resistance, and long-term maintenance. With near-zero water absorption (<0.1%), these tiles are fully frost-proof and will not crack, flake, or fade through UK winters. No sealing is ever required — an annual jet wash is all that's needed to keep surfaces looking pristine year after year.
Installation Guide
- Lay on a full mortar bed — never spot-bed outdoor porcelain
- Prepare a minimum 100mm compacted MOT Type 1 sub-base
- Apply a dedicated porcelain tile primer to the back of each tile before laying
- Maintain a 3–5mm joint gap and finish with a flexible outdoor grout
- Incorporate a drainage fall of 1:60 minimum, falling away from any buildings
- Use a continuous angle grinder blade — never a point-load tile cutter
Frequently Asked Questions
What colour is Silver Quartz Grey paving?
Silver Quartz Grey is a light, cool grey porcelain paving tile with soft linear movement and a clean, architectural feel — a crisp, contemporary grey for modern outdoor spaces.
Is grey porcelain paving slippery when wet?
No. These tiles carry an R11 anti-slip rating, engineered to stay safe underfoot in wet and frosty conditions — ideal for the British climate, poolsides, and shaded areas.
Do porcelain paving tiles need sealing?
No. Vitrified porcelain has a water absorption rate below 0.1%, so staining agents and water cannot penetrate the surface. Unlike sandstone or slate, porcelain paving never needs sealing — before or after installation.
Are these tiles frost-proof for UK winters?
Yes. With near-zero porosity they are fully frost-proof and withstand the UK freeze-thaw cycle without cracking, flaking, or absorbing moisture.
How many 900×600 tiles do I need per square metre?
Each tile covers 0.54 sqm. Divide your area in sqm by 0.54 and add 10% for cuts and wastage — a 20 sqm patio needs roughly 41 tiles. The minimum order is 20 tiles (10.8 sqm).
