Breathable Surfaces - Porous Paving by StoneSet

StoneSet was recently specified for the remediation of damp in a South Australian heritage building. This was due to the 'breathability' offered by StoneSet's porous paving, making it an ideal, solid surface that effectively manages damp ingress. In effect, porous paving in the basement of this problematic, older structure, allows moisture to evaporate instead of pool onto then sink into the soil beneath.

Porous paving from StoneSet in this application became an excellent hard surface underfoot while eliminating the possibility of rot and associated smells. A commercial building using the basement for storage, StoneSet's porous paving is also durable enough to withstand heavy traffic such as trolleys comprising significant weight. Furthermore, the breathability on offer by this porous paving application protected the aged structure from further degradation, allowing moisture to be released into the air, and not the walls.

StoneSet's porous paving saved this building's owner significant stress and cost that comes with the complex retrofit of drainage products typically applied in a case like this.
