Every finish. Every size. Every thickness.
Brushed is our signature finish — available in any grit from a coarse 16 for maximum grip to a fine 120 for a soft, velvety sheen. We also cut sawn, honed, tumbled, split-face, and bush-hammered, in any dimension and thickness your project calls for. Tell us your specification and we cut to it.
Ships by pallet or container to any US state · Lead time quoted per order
Suitability varies with size, thickness, finish, and substrate. Tell us your application when you request a quote and we will confirm the right specification for it.
Bedding: full-bed sand and cement mix or a flexible adhesive appropriate to the substrate.
Joints: from 3 mm for sawn tiles; wider for split-face setts and cobbles.
Sealing: a quality impregnating sealer is recommended for limestone and shellstone; basalt and granite typically need none.
Cutting: wet saw with a diamond blade.
Installation requirements differ by stone and format — a product-specific method note is included with every quote, and our team is available for your installer’s technical questions.
Pricing improves materially with quantity: pallet rates beat per-piece pricing, and full-container rates beat both. Every quote is calculated quarry-direct, with no distributor margin in between.
Distributors, stone yards, and retailers: our Trade & Wholesale Program covers container-load pricing, recurring supply schedules, and private-label production.
Orders ship by pallet or full container to any US state, with kerbside delivery to the nearest safe access point. Lead times depend on stone, finish, and quantity, and are confirmed with your quote. Samples reach any US address within five working days.
Every crate is inspected and photographed before it leaves the yard — if anything is wrong on arrival, contact us and we will make it right.

Garden stepping pavers work best set flush: excavate each pad, bed the stone on compacted grit so its face sits level with the lawn, and the mower passes straight over. Space centres to a natural stride and the path disappears into the garden. Basalt care is minimal — a rinse, a stiff broom, a pH-neutral stone cleaner when needed — sealing is optional, frost is handled by good bedding, and the textured face keeps sure slip resistance in wet grass. Any shape and thickness is cut to order. A sample is available before ordering.
