With so many options on the market in terms of garden design and outdoor aesthetics, knowing which road is right for you can take time and consideration.
That being said, here at PrimaPorcelain, we’re unsurprisingly biased with a strong partisan slant in the direction of porcelain power – and with good reason.
Porcelain paving possesses a wide variety of benefits that puts it head and shoulders above the rest. For proof, look no further than this very blog!
Benefits of Porcelain Pavers
If you’re considering anything other porcelain for your exterior design, take a look at these top five reasons to choose porcelain pavers for your outdoor space.
Unrivalled Durability
The primary headline when it comes to porcelain paving selling points is and will likely always be its superior durability.
Porcelain is incredibly hard-wearing, specifically designed to withstand a myriad of elemental demands.
From sun and snow to wind and rain, porcelain pavers won’t falter under the demands of Mother Nature. They won’t fade nor will they bear the scars of wear and tear.
They are also extremely stain and scratch-resistant, making them the perfect surface for outdoor socialising and alfresco dining.
Low-Maintenance
A brilliant by-product of their innate durability is that our porcelain tiles are extremely low-maintenance, requiring very little upkeep to retain their looks – unlike natural stone.
Specifically engineered to quite literally weather the storm, porcelain paving is fundamentally designed to keep their aesthetic beauty year-round.
That being said, in the event that you did want to give them spruce, our tiles are inherently easy to clean.
To revive your pavers’ “just laid” shine, all you need to do is give them a quick once over with a mop and warm, soapy water.
Safety First
With an extremely low porosity of just 0.05%, porcelain paving tiles are virtually impermeable. Not only does this make them last aesthetically, it also makes them extremely slip-resistant.
This enhanced grip provides greater traction underfoot, while the minimal absorption also allows each paver to dry out very quickly, further reducing the risk of a fall.
Meanwhile, this slip-resistance also extends to ice and frost, with each tile extremely capable under sub-zero temperatures.
For unquestionable clarity, each tile is given a “Grip Factor” rating of 1-5 (1 being low/5 being high) with the majority of our outdoor tiles achieving a rating of 4 or above.
These capabilities in cold and wet conditions make porcelain paving a fantastic flooring solution around areas that are prone to splashes and spills, such as pools and hot tubs.
Design Freedom
When it comes to creative freedom, the sheer variety of designs available with porcelain paving blows any other option completely out of the water.
Whether you’re looking for an outdoor tile that mimics natural stone or a paver that plays the part of a wooden board, PrimaPorcelain can provide.
And the creativity doesn’t stop there.
How you arrange the pavers and their chosen layout can have a huge impact on the overall aesthetic, while adding a secondary tile to compliment it can also open up a whole new world of designs.
If you’re looking to create something unique to your property, porcelain paving can provide that in droves with a list of combinations that’s virtually endless.
Seamless Transition
Following on from the previous point, porcelain paving tiles also provide you with the power to seamlessly blend your outdoor space with your interior design.
By choosing a matching indoor tile, porcelain paving can be transitioned from the outdoors into the home.
In addition to achieving a smooth, uninterrupted transition, it also expands both the outside area and the interior living space.
This can be particularly notable when incorporated with a level patio and foldable patio doors, providing an expansive effect that opens up both indoors and outdoors considerably.
