What You're Getting – Shop Premium Quality

This is genuine Kandla Grey Indian sandstone in a carefully balanced mixed size patio pack – not uniform tiles or single-size formats. You're getting four coordinated slab sizes specifically proportioned to work together for traditional random pattern paving with the sophisticated silver-grey palette and naturally riven finish that's made Kandla Grey Britain's bestselling natural stone for over a decade.

The mixed size composition delivers genuine design flexibility. Each pack contains 900x600mm large rectangles for efficient coverage, 600x600mm squares for transition pieces, 600x290mm half-rectangles for pattern variation, and 290x290mm small squares for infill and detail. These sizes aren't random – they're mathematically proportioned to work together organically while maintaining visual balance throughout large-format installations.

The color? The classic Kandla Grey sophistication everyone recognizes. Soft silver-grey foundations subtly enhanced with blue-grey undertones and occasional warmer grey accents in naturally harmonious variation. This isn't stark industrial grey – it's sophisticated tonal complexity that creates calm, elegant outdoor spaces with genuine natural stone character.

The four sizes share the same naturally riven finish throughout. "Riven" means surfaces split along natural geological planes during quarrying, creating authentic textured undulation through layering formed over millions of years. This unified finish ensures all four sizes blend seamlessly despite their different proportions – the texture ties everything together visually.

The handcut edges maintain traditional rustic character across all formats. These edges look like genuine estate stonework – intentionally irregular without being sloppy, traditional without feeling dated. The slight variation in edge profiles creates naturally rustic joints between slabs regardless of size combination.

The 22mm thickness represents traditional paving specification across all four sizes. This established thickness provides excellent structural integrity, proven durability over decades, and compatibility with traditional installation techniques. Consistent thickness throughout the mixed pack simplifies installation – you're working with uniform depth even while varying formats.

What Makes Mixed Size Different:

The fundamental difference from uniform paving? Pattern possibilities. With four coordinated sizes, you can create proper opus romano patterns, random modular layouts, or entirely organic arrangements. No two patios look identical because there's no single "correct" pattern – you design the layout based on your space and aesthetic preferences.

This flexibility suits irregular spaces beautifully. Curves, angles, odd corners – mixed sizes adapt far better than endless identical rectangles. You can follow contours naturally, create focal points with size variation, transition between areas with different format emphasis. The pattern becomes part of the design rather than fighting against it.

The traditional aesthetic is the primary appeal. Random pattern paving looks established, intentional, timeless. Grid layouts with uniform slabs read as obviously modern installation. Random patterns with varied sizing feel like they've been there forever – that organic estate quality that suits heritage properties, cottage gardens, and traditional landscapes.

However, installation requires more planning. Someone needs to work out how pieces fit together. If you're DIYing, that's you spending time arranging stones into balanced patterns. If you're paying someone, that's additional labor time. The puzzle aspect either appeals or frustrates depending on personality – worth considering honestly before committing.

Available in three flexible pack sizes to suit different project scales. The 18.95 sqm pack at £399 (£20.99/m²) handles substantial patios with best per-meter pricing. The 15.25 sqm pack at £349 (£22.85/m²) suits mid-sized areas. The 9.50 sqm pack at £299 (£31.47/m²) covers smaller spaces.

Coverage Calculation:
Based on 10mm joints between slabs. Order slightly more than your calculated coverage to account for cutting wastage around edges and obstacles – particularly important with mixed size patterns.

How to Use It

Traditional Random Patterns: The signature application for mixed size patio packs. Distribute the four sizes organically throughout the layout without repeating patterns. The goal is balanced visual weight – avoid clustering all large slabs together or creating obvious repeated arrangements. Looks established and intentional rather than obviously modern.

Opus Romano Layouts: The structured approach to random paving. Work from a planned pattern that uses the four sizes in specific proportional arrangements. Creates organized appearance while maintaining traditional character. Popular for larger patios where completely random patterns might feel chaotic.

Irregular Space Solutions: The mixed sizes handle awkward areas beautifully. Use large 900x600mm slabs for main open areas, transition with 600x600mm squares, fill curves and corners with 600x290mm half-rectangles, and detail tight spaces with 290x290mm small squares. Adapts to spaces where uniform tiles would require extensive cutting.

Heritage and Period Properties: The naturally riven texture and random pattern particularly suit older properties. Creates authentic estate aesthetic without heritage prices. Complements stone cottages, Victorian terraces, traditional buildings where uniform modern paving would feel inappropriate.

Garden Zones and Transitions: Use size variation to define spaces. Emphasize large formats in main seating areas, shift to smaller proportions for pathways or borders. The pattern itself creates visual separation without needing different materials.

Installation Tips

For 22mm thickness paving, you'll want 100-150mm compacted Type 1 MOT sub-base with 40-50mm sharp sand and cement bedding layer. A 4:1 or 5:1 mix works well for bedding mortar. The consistent 22mm thickness across all four sizes means uniform bedding depth throughout – you're leveling to different formats but working with identical thickness.

The key challenge with mixed size packs is pattern planning. Most professionals recommend dry-laying a section first to work out arrangements that feel balanced. You want the four sizes distributed organically without obvious clusters or repeating patterns. Step back periodically during installation to assess overall composition.

Maintain consistent 10-15mm joints between slabs regardless of size combination. The handcut edges create naturally rustic joints that work with varied formats. Don't try to force tight fitting – the joints are part of the traditional aesthetic and accommodate natural edge variation.

Start with larger slabs to establish major areas, then fill with medium and small formats. This approach typically feels more natural than trying to plan every piece precisely. The pattern emerges organically rather than looking forced or overly designed.

Distribute color variation naturally during installation. With Kandla Grey you're working with subtle tonal shifts rather than dramatic differences, but still worth mixing slabs from different areas of the pack to ensure silver-grey tones and blue-grey undertones blend organically throughout rather than clustering.

The sophisticated grey palette works beautifully as foundation for contrasting or complementary materials. Edge with darker black limestone for definition, combine with warmer Camel Dust or Rippon Buff in separate zones, or use Kandla Grey setts for matching borders. The neutral grey functions as perfect backdrop.

What to Expect with Natural Stone

Here's what makes authentic Kandla Grey special – it's genuine quarried sandstone with sophisticated silver-grey palette and traditional riven texture. The color is remarkably consistent compared to multi-toned stone, but natural variation still exists within that grey spectrum. All four sizes share the same color range, so format variation doesn't create color segregation.

Some slabs lean predominantly toward cool silver-grey with pronounced blue undertones. Others showcase warmer mid-grey as primary character with silver highlights. Many display gentle blends – silver backgrounds with blue shadows and warm grey accents. This variation is subtle enough that patios read as cohesive grey surfaces while maintaining natural stone character.

The naturally riven finish delivers authentic textured surface formed through geological layering. The undulating surface creates shadows and depth that change throughout the day as light angles shift. This texture is identical across all four sizes, ensuring visual consistency despite format variation.

The color remains beautifully stable over time. The sophisticated grey palette doesn't fade, yellow, or change dramatically – it develops gentle patina that enhances rather than alters the stone's character. This stability is why Kandla Grey remains Britain's bestselling natural stone – genuinely timeless.

The riven surface provides excellent slip resistance. Rain intensifies the grey tones beautifully – colors deepen when wet, creating depth dry stone only hints at. The texture maintains safe footing even with algae growth or frost formation.

The handcut edges create naturally rustic joints across all size combinations. Unlike precision-sawn smooth paving with tight geometric joints, riven Kandla Grey creates traditional joints with character. This suits heritage aesthetic and established gardens where clinical precision would feel inappropriate.

The mixed size format actually helps disguise batch variation if present. Because you're naturally distributing four different sizes throughout the layout, any subtle color differences between production runs just read as part of the overall natural variation rather than obvious patches.

Care & Maintenance

Kandla Grey riven sandstone is wonderfully low maintenance – the textured riven surface hides everyday dirt beautifully. The sophisticated grey palette means marks blend rather than standing out. The random pattern with mixed sizes further disguises minor imperfections. Sweep occasionally and the natural undulation creates self-cleaning effect.

Hit it with a gentle pressure wash once or twice a year to remove accumulated grime. The riven texture responds well to washing – colors brighten and the natural undulation shows off its character. The textured surface is more forgiving than smooth finishes during cleaning.

Many people seal Kandla Grey to enhance color depth and protect the surface. A quality sandstone sealer brings out the blue-grey undertones beautifully and creates slight sheen that adds depth. The riven finish takes sealer well though application requires more product than smooth surfaces.

If you prefer natural patina, the stone performs well unsealed. The grey palette develops gentle weathering that adds established character. Many prefer the weathered appearance because it feels more traditional and authentically estate-like. The riven texture shows patina beautifully.

The mixed size format means replacement is straightforward. Simply lift damaged pieces and bed replacements – the random pattern means new slabs integrate seamlessly without obvious patches. The consistent grey tones ensure repairs blend naturally.
