Paving

A great community project in Sligo

The Challenge: To provide an urban garden area of the highest design quality which is fully accessible while being fun and functional.

The products would have to be:

  • Functional to accommodate the special needs of the customer.
  • Resilient and suitable for Irish conditions.
  • Accommodate the vision specified by Diarmuid Gavin (Landscape Architect).
  • Available to suit the tight project timeline.
Porcelain Walls Beige
The Solution

Roadstone provided 70m2 of Porcelain which was laid at the rear of the house as a recreational area and as an area for outdoor entertaining.  This Italian Porcelain was a Beige Porcelain and is Roadstone’s larger porcelain unit at 1200x600x20mm. Roadstone’s Porcelain offers unbeatable durability, strength, and ease of maintenance. Ideal for use in patios and gardens, Porcelain comes in a range of colours and sizes and Porcelain can be laid with narrow joints to allow a seamless contemporary finish to your space.  Roadstone’s Porcelain is low maintenance, anti-slip, scratch and stain resistant, and does not fade over time.

Roadstone’s bagged products were used to install the porcelain. Bagged Pavebed was used under the porcelain with Pavebond painted onto to the back of the porcelain units to ensure adhesion and Pavepoint Grout used to grout the porcelain.

Lessons Learned

Lessons Learned

Roadstone Technical staff should always be engaged with before the beginning of large projects. This gives the client the full benefit of the project experience of Roadstone staff.

A Roadstone Retail Outlet should be visited before commencement in order that customer can see and take-home samples of the paving options.
