Porcelain Paving

Porcelain paving is the perfect choice for your garden if you are looking for something that looks as clean and fresh every day, as it did when it was first installed. It is easy to clean, durable and hard-wearing.

The key benefits of choosing porcelain paving are:

Weather Resistance

Porcelain paving isn’t affected by the elements like natural stone can be; freezing temperatures, for example, won’t cause it to deteriorate over time.

Non-Porous

The surface of porcelain paving is non-porous, meaning that it absorbs less moisture that other types of stone. This prevents moss and algae from growing on the surface of porcelain paving slab, and makes it easier to clean up spills therefore less likely to stain.

Chemical Resistance

Porcelain paving slabs won’t be damaged by acid or alkali-based chemicals containing harsh ingredients. These are commonly found in garden care products such as lawn treatments and fertilisers.

No Colour Fading

Porcelain paving does not lose its beautiful colour over time. Black will remain rich, and lighter like light grey porcelain paving won’t darken.

Anti-Slip Finish

The unique, roughened finish to porcelain paving doesn’t detract from the overall appearance of the stone. Outdoor porcelain paving ensures excellent underfoot grip when the paving is either damp or wet, making it slip-resistant.

Easy to Clean

Paving is widely regarded as excellent in the outdoors due to its combined characteristics of being both durable and extremely clean. While its strong surface is resistant to weather and on-foot traffic, it's the ease of maintenance that truly distinguishes it. At Howarth, we sell a wide range of paving maintenance equipment, from porcelain paving primer to porcelain paving cleaner.

A potential drawback to porcelain paving is finding the right installer, as porcelain is installed differently to other types of paving.

At Howarth, we offer a variety of porcelain paving options, including the very popular Marshalls porcelain paving.

Marshalls porcelain paving slabs have a beautiful stylish look while benefitting from being low maintenance, frost resistant, slip-resistant, and resistant to mould or moss.
