Fall in Love with Natural Paving Materials

At Rivar Sand and Gravel we are proud to be able to offer a delightful range of natural paving solutions, from porcelain tiles to Indian sandstone to travertine and marble. Quality, design freedom, the wealth of products and competitive prices make natural paving a must have in your exterior spaces. Every paving slab is unique thanks to Mother Nature’s handiwork over several Millennia and their aesthetic appeal and functionality is superb.

For example, porcelain tiles represent value for money, are stylish, available in a wide range of colours and finishes, and can be used in traditional, contemporary, monochrome, fun, reflective and action-packed spaces. Rivar’s own porcelain tiles are fade, slip, frost, watermark and stain resistant. Porcelain bears weight and our weather well and it is resistant to mould, moss, oil and acid spillage damage.

Indian sandstone has been ethically sourced and as its shapes, hues and patterns cannot be replicated, it’s impossible to have two slabs the same. Excellent for creating the wow factor and envious neighbours, it looks as though you’ve spent a small fortune to achieve the installation and allure, but you won’t have to phone the bank manager to afford it.

Slate and limestone paving materials are subtle and elegant, they provide ideal backdrops to planting and features whilst travertine and marble demand to be admired.

Many paving materials are suitable for use indoors and outside which means continuity and flow are maximised. From your conservatory to your back gate, your kitchen to the children’s play area, even from the front door to the wheelie bin, don’t compromise on the overall property allure. A little money, creativity and time delivers undeniable kerb and room appeal.

Wood effect paving, made from natural stone paving materials offers longevity which timber cannot. If you want a natural look that appears to be timber not paving, consider rich red-brown porcelain tiles with Sandal wood effect or grey-white Jasmine wood effect porcelain tiles. Manmade concrete alternatives like Timberstone driftwood are also pleasing.
