Sandstone gives a warm, natural finish that suits everything from 1970s brick homes in Glen Waverley and Doncaster to period houses in Camberwell, Balwyn and Surrey Hills. It's softer in colour than bluestone and stays cooler underfoot in summer, which makes it a favourite for patios, garden paths and pool surrounds.
Sawn sandstone has a smooth, even face and clean edges for a tidy, contemporary look. Honed sandstone is ground smoother for a refined finish. Natural cleft (riven) sandstone keeps the stone's layered texture and grip, and suits period homes and informal gardens. Tumbled sandstone has softened edges for a relaxed, aged look. Around pools we recommend a textured finish for grip.
Most of the eastern suburbs sit on reactive clay, so sandstone needs a compacted crushed-rock base and, for larger or thinner pavers, a full mortar bed so the stone is supported edge to edge. Falls are set away from the house and toward drains or garden beds. Sandstone is porous, so we seal it after laying to reduce staining and moss, and recommend resealing every few years.

Sandstone ($170–$270/m²) is warm, natural and textured. Travertine ($180–$280/m²) is denser with a creamy, Mediterranean look. Bluestone ($190–$300/m²) is the darkest and hardest-wearing, with a crisp Melbourne look. All three suit the eastern suburbs; the right one depends on your house, how much sun the area gets and how much upkeep you want.
We lay sandstone across the eastern suburbs, including Glen Waverley, Box Hill, Doncaster, Balwyn, Camberwell, Blackburn and Vermont South.
Bluestone paving uses quarried basalt stone, either sawn and honed for a smooth formal finish or natural-split for a rustic look. It's one of the most durable and sought-after paving materials in Melbourne, resistant to frost and heavy wear.

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.
