The Citron Square Edge Limestone paving slabs provide a vivid and vibrant look for your garden or driveway. When wet, the colours deepen to rich dark gold, adding brightness to your home even on the gloomiest days. If you're aiming for an eye-catching, bright patio or garden year-round, these 'Thai Yellow paving stones are the perfect choice. The varying shades of yellow and gold will continuously infuse your home with a sense of brightness and shimmer.
These slabs come in various shades, typically ranging from light to deep yellows and golds for the 'Tuscan' paving. Due to their natural origin, it's important to remember that these stones are prone to weathering and colour changes over time.
If you're aiming to design a garden or patio that offers a subtle touch of colour while remaining elegantly understated, the Citron Square Edge, also known as 'Yellow Limestone,' is an excellent choice.
These natural stones not only enhance the beauty of your home and garden but also offer long-lasting durability, minimizing the need for replacements. The Citron Square Edge is a versatile option suitable for a variety of projects, including back gardens, patios, driveways, and front gardens. For additional options, consider 'Kota Yellow,' which is equally well-suited for period properties, office front gardens, restaurant exteriors, and more.
Looking after your Paving
Looking After Your Paving
Limestone and Sandstone are natural stones and, as a result, the slabs will discolour and change to a slightly lighter shade over time.
However, there are ways to hinder the fading process, and in order to ensure the colours remain as fresh and vivid as possible, we highly recommend purchasing a sealer alongside your order with us to ensure the natural colour remains for years to come.
Sandstone and Limestone Differences
What is the Difference Between Limestone and Sandstone Paving?
There are several qualities between Limestone and Sandstone Paving Slabs that are very similar, and this is because both of these paving slabs derive from natural stone quarries based in India, where large forms of natural stone have developed over thousands of years.
As the more economical option, Limestone is a tad more brittle in comparison to Sandstone. But please don't forget that once Limestone has been installed, the durability will be the same as Sandstone Paving, therefore you won't need to worry about the slabs getting damaged.
One factor to take note of is that Limestone will naturally discolour as time passes, whether or not you have applied sealant to the slabs. This eventual fading does require some maintenance and TLC to retain the original colour as long as possible. Maintaining the original colours in Sandstone Paving is a little easier in comparison.
We supply a varied range of Sandstone and Limestone Paving in different types and styles. Both are available in Weathered versions, and Sandstone can also be bought as Sawn Paving. If you want matching garden edging or a smart patio border, matching Cobble Setts are also available for both Sandstone and Limestone Paving.
Taking all these factors into consideration when deciding between Sandstone Paving and Limestone Paving, it really depends on the colours you are looking for, and whether you mind your Indian Limestone fading over time. Both require the same upkeep and have a lovely rustic look to them.
Why Choose our Natural Paving
Our paving slabs are calibrated to a 22mm depth which ensures perfect size consistency, long-lasting durability and high quality when laying the slabs.
These slabs are much more porous than other paving materials, especially when compared to Porcelain Paving slabs. This high porosity is a result of the fact that Limestone and Sandstone are naturally developed stones, and because of this they will also show signs of discolouration as well, but fear not! Using a sealer can "lock in" the colour of your slabs for years to come.
