Porcelain is non-porous, so it doesn't soak up stains from wine, oil, leaves or pool water.
The colour is fired in, so it looks the same in ten years as it does on day one.
Outdoor porcelain is made with a textured, slip-rated surface for patios and pool surrounds.
Large, uniform pavers with tight joints give a sleek, contemporary finish.
Bluestone-look, travertine-look and concrete-look ranges without natural stone upkeep.
Match the paving to your indoor tiles for a seamless transition to the alfresco.
Bluestone-look porcelain pavers give the grey, textured look of Melbourne bluestone with porcelain's low maintenance. The colour is consistent from paver to paver, they don't need sealing, and they're lighter than natural stone.
It's a popular choice for pool surrounds and alfresco areas where people want the bluestone look without sealing or stone variation. We'll bring samples of both so you can compare them side by side.

Antonio completed our bluestone paving in Hampton and the result is outstanding. The levels, drainage and finishing details are flawless. Highly recommended for high-end paving.
We had a fairly complicated drainage issue on the site, but Antonio came up with a solution and executed it perfectly. The workmanship was top quality, and there were no unexpected surprises along the way.
Antonio runs a very professional small business. Friendly, punctual and hard working. Built 2 retaining walls and remodelled our driveway paving. Would use Antonio's service again.
Antonio and his colleague did a great job with our backyard brick laying. Easy to deal with, on time and professional.
Antonio just completed some brick paving alongside our front fence. The paving looks fabulous and was completed in 2 days. He was reliable and the work was completed to a high standard.
Antonio cleared out our small backyard, laid some pavers and built a step around our existing deck. He was quick to respond, well priced, and was happy to change and vary the scope of works as needed.
It depends on the job. Stone laid on a mortar bed — crazy paving, and bluestone or travertine around pools and patios — usually gets grouted joints, which are firm and easy to keep clean. Pavers laid on a compacted sand and crushed-rock base, like brick and concrete pavers on driveways and paths, get polymeric sand, which sets firm, stays slightly flexible and helps keep weeds and ants out. We recommend the right one for your area on the site visit.
Porcelain paving uses large-format, low-porosity porcelain tiles laid on a full mortar bed. It won't fade, stain or flake like natural stone can, and comes in an anti-slip rated finish suitable for pool surrounds, patios and alfresco areas.
Most porcelain paving jobs we quote cost $180–$280 per m² supplied and laid, and a typical 20m² area usually lands around $3,600–$5,600. Every quote is free and confirmed in writing after an on-site measure-up.
Porcelain pavers made to look like Melbourne bluestone — the same grey, textured appearance, but consistent in colour, lighter to handle and with no sealing needed.
No. Porcelain is non-porous, so it doesn't absorb stains and never needs sealing — one of its biggest advantages over natural stone.
