MINT SANDSTONE PAVING - SAWN & HONED - Sample

Preview the soft, elegant charm of the Mint Smooth Sandstone paving with this sample piece — an ideal way to evaluate colour, finish and texture before placing your full order.

• Subtle pastel palette: Mint sandstone blends creamy beiges, soft yellows and very light green-undertones, offering a light, airy aesthetic that brightens patios, terraces or garden walkways. According to the full size product info, it features “greenish, yellow, and beige shades” and is also known as “tint mint”.

• Smooth, honed finish: Unlike riven or heavily textured styles, the smooth/sawn finish gives a sleek, contemporary surface — good for modern outdoor spaces, creating a clean look with subtle natural variation.

• Outdoor-rated natural stone: Although this is a sample, the full-size paving is designed for exterior use (calibrated around 20 mm thickness, frost-resistant, outdoor suitable).

• Visual evaluation before purchase: By obtaining this sample, you can view how the stone performs in your setting—how the tone shifts under different light (sun/shade) and different conditions (dry/wet) — alongside your garden furniture, plants or surrounding materials.

• Design-friendly & versatile: The light, neutral yet interesting tones of mint sandstone fit both traditional and contemporary gardens. It pairs well with timber, dark metal, greenery and various wall/brick hues.

• Simple maintenance: Natural sandstone in a smooth finish is relatively easy to care for when properly installed. Sweep regularly, rinse with warm soapy water as needed, and note that natural stone will show variation — this is part of its character.

Installation & Care Tips

• Place the sample outdoors in both sunlight and shade, and view when both dry and wet, to get a full sense of how colour and finish appear in your specific setting.

• For full-sized installation: ensure a well-prepared sub-base, correct bedding or adhesive for outdoor stone, consistent joint widths, good drainage and proper edge detailing.

• Maintenance is straightforward: regular sweeping, occasional rinsing with warm soapy water and soft brush as required. Avoid harsh acid-based or abrasive cleaners, as they may damage natural stone.

• When ordering full slabs: try to order from the same production batch (to reduce variation), and consider ordering ~10% extra material to cover cuts, wastage and future repairs.

Summary:
The Mint Smooth Sandstone Paving sample is a smart, low-risk way to preview a high-quality natural stone paving option — combining a fresh, light aesthetic with an outdoor-rated build and design flexibility. Use the sample to gauge the look and feel in your own space with confidence before proceeding to the full-scale installation.
