Porcelain Paving FAQ

What is porcelain paving made of?
Porcelain paving is made from a combination of clays, sands and minerals (such as feldspar). These ingredients are mixed together with water, then baked in a kiln at very high temperatures. The result is an exceptionally durable paving slab that lasts for years and requires very little maintenance.
Is porcelain porous?
No – porcelain is far less porous (and thus less absorbent) than natural stone. Our moisture-resistant porcelain paving slabs absorb less than 0.05% of surface water! Our outdoor porcelain tiles are a superb choice for gardens that see a lot of wet weather.
Is porcelain paving slippery?
It depends on the product. All of our porcelain tiles and paving slabs have a ‘grip factor’ rating from R1 (very low slip resistance) to R5 (very high slip resistance). A higher rating means a lower risk of slipping. For outdoor spaces, we recommend our outdoor porcelain tiles which have a grip factor rating of 4 or higher.
What is the best way to lay porcelain slabs?
Our porcelain tiles can be installed in the traditional manner using a traditional cement mix and bonding agent, but the 20mm thick patio slabs can also be dry-installed using our pedestal supports or the revolutionary Easy-Frame system. This allows you to complete your new patio with minimal mess!
What is 'vitrified' porcelain paving?
When porcelain paving slabs are baked at an exceptionally high temperature, the material ‘vitrifies’, creating a glass substrate throughout the body of the tile. Vitrified tiles are highly durable and water resistant, and unlike standard ceramic tiles, no glazing is necessary to protect the surface of the product.
How much is porcelain paving?
The cost of porcelain paving varies enormously depending on who you buy from and the quality of their tiles. As with most things in life, you get what you pay for – cheap patio slabs generally don’t look as good or last as long as premium porcelain paving products. PrimaPorcelain tiles range in price from approximately £30 per m2 to £60 per m2.
Does porcelain paving stain?
Our vitrified porcelain paving slabs absorb less than 0.05% of moisture, so stains are very rare. Most spills can be wiped away without a trace.
How thick are porcelain paving slabs?
Our outdoor paving slabs are typically 20mm thick. This superior thickness makes the tiles exceptionally strong and hard-wearing. We also offer indoor tiles, most of which are 10mm thick.
Does porcelain paving fade?
No – our porcelain paving slabs are fade resistant, meaning that they will remain beautiful no matter what the weather throws at them. During the manufacturing process, a special dye is mixed in before our slabs go into the kiln; the result is a consistent colour throughout the entire body of the tile.

A couple from Salisbury, Wiltshire were looking for porcelain paving to create a covered terrace in their back garden. They chose our 20mm Cotswold Ivory porcelain paving slabs for a gorgeous natural finish. Now, they're making the most of their new patio by dining alfresco and relaxing after hours.
We are certainly very happy with our terrace and veranda - one of the best decisions in our house that we have made.
