What is the Difference between Porcelain and Sandstone?
For years, sandstone paving has been the traditional choice for outdoor patios and garden spaces, celebrated for its natural, rustic charm. Its unique, textured surface and earthy tones create a warm, inviting atmosphere, making it an excellent option for those who appreciate an organic, timeless aesthetic.
However, as modern garden design evolves, more homeowners are seeking a sleek, contemporary look that seamlessly blends their indoor and outdoor spaces. This shift in preference has led to the rise in popularity of porcelain paving, now our best-selling range.
Porcelain paving offers a clean, sophisticated finish, making it the ideal choice for modern landscapes. Unlike natural stone, porcelain is a manufactured material, ensuring precision, uniformity, and minimal imperfections. This makes installation easier and results in a consistent, polished appearance across the patio.
Another key advantage of porcelain is its low porosity—it does not absorb water, meaning it’s highly resistant to staining, frost damage, and general weathering. Our range of permeable jointing products complements this feature, ensuring proper drainage while maintaining the pristine quality of your paving.
For those who prefer a more organic, traditional look, sandstone remains a fantastic option. As a naturally formed stone, each slab is unique, featuring subtle variations in color and texture that develop character over time. However, because it is more porous than porcelain, sandstone absorbs some moisture, leading to natural weathering and slight colour changes over time. While this can add to its charm, it also means regular maintenance may be required to preserve its original appearance.
Ultimately, selecting between sandstone and porcelain paving depends on personal preference and the desired aesthetic for your outdoor space. If you seek a low-maintenance, contemporary patio with a flawless finish, porcelain paving is an excellent choice. If you prefer a natural, evolving look with character and warmth, sandstone will provide timeless appeal.
For expert guidance tailored to your specific garden design, we always recommend consulting a professional landscaper to ensure the best results.

Looking After Your Porcelain Paving
One of the biggest advantages of porcelain paving is its low-maintenance nature, making it a fantastic choice for homeowners looking for a hassle-free outdoor space. Unlike natural stone, which may require regular sealing and deep cleaning, porcelain is highly resistant to stains, moisture, and general wear. However, to keep your paving looking its best, a few simple maintenance steps are recommended.
Regular Cleaning Routine
To maintain the pristine appearance of your porcelain patio, we suggest:
Hosing down or jet washing your paving every six months to remove any accumulated dirt, dust, or grime.
Using a soft-bristle broom to sweep away leaves, twigs, and other debris that might collect on the surface.
Dealing with Spillages
While porcelain paving is highly stain-resistant, it’s always best to clean up any spills immediately to prevent any potential residue from settling. For everyday spills like food, drinks, or mud:
Simply wipe the affected area with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth.
For tougher stains, a mild, non-acidic cleaner can be used—avoid harsh chemicals that may affect the surface finish.
Preventing Algae & Moss Growth
Unlike porous materials like sandstone, porcelain paving does not absorb water, making it naturally resistant to moss, algae, and mildew. However, in damp or shaded areas, some surface growth may still occur. If you notice any signs of algae:
Use a diluted solution of warm water and a gentle patio cleaner to remove it.
Avoid using abrasive scrubbers, as they could dull the finish of your paving.
Seasonal Care
Winter: Porcelain is frost-resistant, meaning it won’t crack due to freezing temperatures. If ice forms on the surface, use grit or sand rather than rock salt, which can leave marks.
Autumn: Falling leaves can create staining if left for too long. Regular sweeping during this season will help keep your patio clear.
By following these simple maintenance tips, your porcelain paving will retain its stunning, contemporary finish for years to come, allowing you to enjoy a stylish and effortless outdoor space with minimal upkeep.
