StoneSet Permeable Paving Australia & New Zealand

StoneSetting the Standard

November has been a busy month for StoneSet with a noticeable demand from the domestic market. Of the jobs completed, the transformation of grounds surrounding a historic mansion stood out as being one of the most impressive.

This stunning early 20th century building is now made up of four impressive apartments. The grounds surrounding the mansion were previously made up of loose red gravel. Although the colour worked wonderfully with the architecture, the gravel was creating a lot of dust and was beginning to look tired. The residents wanted to freshen up the grounds and bring them up to the same standard as their exquisite apartments.

The StoneSet team spent a week working at the mansion, initially preparing the ground and then laying the paving. The pre-installation team took three days to remove the loose gravel, sweep and bag the dust and break out the existing surface to tie in levels. The remaining two days were spent laying 492 square meters of StoneSet permeable paving.

The aggregate chosen for this project was 6mm Terracotta. The colour was not dissimilar to the previous loose gravel but as with all StoneSet products the paving was fully bound to create a seamless, smooth surface. The warm colour of this stone worked beautifully with it's surroundings; amongst the green of the gardens and the blue backdrop of the harbour, the StoneSet paving looked completely at home in paradise. Another spectacular result.

StoneSet is available throughout Australia and New Zealand.
