Porcelain Paving Slabs: An Overview

Porcelain paving slabs make for a stunning addition to any outdoor space. That’s because porcelain offers an extremely contemporary look that is just as popular within interior design as it is in exterior landscaping projects. 

 

Plus with anti-slip and frost-resistant properties, outdoor porcelain paving is a lot more versatile than you think. Not all porcelain tiles are created equal. Any porcelain slabs listed for exterior use (as you’ll find on our website) are geared towards the elements to provide a safe and comfortable walking surface. So you’re in exactly the right place if you’re looking for porcelain tiles that can be used outside! 

 

Each slab offers a large amount of surface coverage (600x600mm). This helps when laying any paving as it means it takes less time compared with laying lots of smaller tiles or slabs. When finished and a complimenting grouting has been applied, the finished look of porcelain paving is truly stunning.

 

Our porcelain paving is available in five distinct colours, including:

  • Grey Anthracite
  • Beige
  • Grey 
  • White
  • Dark Grey

 

So whether you crave the timeless look of grey paving, or fancy switching things up with a darker or lighter coloured paving, you’ll find some stunning colour options to explore on our website

Alongside outdoor porcelain paving slabs, you’ll find a wide range of hardscaping and landscaping accessories for your project here at Stone Warehouse. This includes our edging products, concrete paving, patio circle kits, paving slabs, sandstone paving, stepping stones and sleepers

 

Why Opt For Porcelain Paving Slabs To Transform Your Outdoor Space?

Porcelain paving instantly upgrades your outdoor space with a contemporary look. Yet by the same token, porcelain paving offers many of the fundamentals that landscapers look out for. This includes non-slip properties along with a highly durable and practical surface to cater for various outdoor activities.

 

Our porcelain paving slabs are available in 5 colour options. Traditional grey porcelain paving looks incredible when paired with white pebbles along with greenery elsewhere in your garden. But if you fancy something a bit different, you’ll find our porcelain slabs in shades of black, beige and white. 

 

Every shade of our porcelain paving has other tones intermixed giving a very natural look, as well as more visual interest.

 

Overall, porcelain paving just packs in that wow factor. Whether you’re only making a modest update to your garden, or if you’re going for a grand renovation, porcelain paving is an incredibly eye-catching option for any outdoor space. 

 

Top tip: Laying a similar style floor indoors can create a seamless transition to your outdoor space. This ‘endless’ flooring effect can also be very attractive to buyers if you are looking to sell your property anytime soon. 

 

Porcelain Paving Usage Ideas 

Porcelain paving slabs are extremely versatile. These slabs can be used to pave practically any part of your outdoor space, whether the intention is to walk on the paving or create a space for entertaining in the summer months. 

 

On each product listing, you’ll find full product details including the usage suitability of our garden paving to guide you. But here is a general overview to inspire your next project! 

Patios And Walkways

Having a solid, even surface to walk on in your garden cannot be underestimated. For pushchairs and wheelchairs especially, an uneven surface can create barriers to accessing the property or the outdoor space.

 

But with porcelain paving, the thorough ground preparation ensures a plumb finish as each tile will be checked with a spirit level to ensure it is even with the tile next to it. All of which will provide you with a highly practical surface, not least because of the smooth texture of the slabs themselves!

 

Did you know?: Research suggests adding a new patio can add up to 20% to the value of your home. Furthermore, patios have been found to be 65% more attractive to buyers compared with decking. 

 

Outdoor Dining Or Seating Areas

When that British sun finally hits, we all want to be out making the most of it. With a beautiful new porcelain patio, you can easily establish outdoor dining or seating areas. Porcelain is also idea for an eating area because it’s maintenance for spills is very easy. As Porcelain is very dense, most things like oil, wine and grease are easy to wipe off and leave the paving stain-free. Porosity of concrete or sandstones (unless they're treated with a sealant), will result in stains being more difficult to remove.

 

Courtyards

Only have a small amount of outdoor space, or perhaps an area which connects to another part of your garden? Porcelain slabs can be used to establish or enhance an existing courtyard providing an abundance of practicality and durability. If you have room, adding a few potted plants can create an extremely appealing look to your courtyard. 

 

Pools Or Water Features

Pools and water features are often bordered by paving, either to enhance accessibility or purely for aesthetic appeal. With textured surfaces that offer excellent non-slip properties, our porcelain slabs are an ideal choice for a variety of outdoor projects, including areas near water features.

How To Lay Porcelain Paving Slabs

Applying Porcelain can be slightly different to other paving slabs. Check out this DIY video on how to lay porcelain paving here.

 

How To Clean Porcelain Paving Slabs

It’s a common myth that cleaning porcelain slabs is difficult, but this couldn’t be further from the truth! On a regular basis, give your paving slabs a good sweep to remove dirt and debris which will help maintain their appearance. For deeper cleans, you can mix a bucket of warm water and washing up liquid to make a cleaning mix. You can also add some specialist porcelain paving cleaner into this mix for a slightly more intensive clean. A light power wash can also be used to lift any stubborn algae or stains from porcelain slabs but please avoid the paving joints! Also, avoid using bleach or other astringent products on porcelain paving as this may lift the colour.  

 

How To Cut Porcelain Paving Slabs

It is generally recommended to use a bench saw with a diamond blade to cut porcelain slabs to ensure a clean cut with smooth edges. If you are not confident in cutting your own porcelain paving slabs, we recommend enlisting the help of a professional landscaper. 

 

What Is Porcelain Paving?

Porcelain paving is a type of ceramic material used for exterior landscaping projects. It is made by firing finely ground clay at extremely high temperatures, resulting in an extremely durable material. 

 

Are Porcelain Paving Slabs Any Good?

Yes! Porcelain slabs make for a stunning addition to any outdoor space. They provide a practical and even surface to walk on, as well as dine or entertain on. With 5 colours to choose from, you can create the exact look you have in mind for your garden with our beautiful porcelain slabs. Over time, porcelain slabs are easy to maintain, meaning they will offer longevity to your project. 

 

Are Porcelain Paving Slabs Hard Wearing?

Yes. Any porcelain paving that is geared towards outdoor use must be able to tolerate heavy foot traffic along with various weather conditions. Porcelain paving undergoes vitrification to prolong the lifespan of each slab. Cleaning and maintaining your porcelain paving slabs over time will ensure they continue to look and perform their best for longer. 

 

What Is The Best Primer For Porcelain Slabs?

We stock Professional Landscaper recommended primer for porcelain slabs: EASYPrime which is polymer-modified slurry primer that serves as a high-strength bonding agent for laying porcelain paving. It’s easy to apply and ensures full, permanent contact with the mortar in the bedding layer. Ideal for use in domestic, commercial, and public areas. Take a look at EASYPrime here


 

What Is The Best Grout For Porcelain Paving?

EASYJoint Select and EasyGrount are Professional landscaper-recommended grouting products for porcelain paving. Generally, Epoxy resin does NOT adhere well enough to Porcelain. Make sure you follow each product's instructions in order to use it correctly. 

 

How Do You Make A Good Outdoor Space?

Everyone has a different idea of how they’d like to use their garden, whether this is more of a playground for the kids or a relaxing space to unwind in. In any case, we think a good outdoor space is somewhere that feels inviting to spend time in. There’s no better way to introduce practicality and style into your garden than by adding outdoor porcelain tiles! 

 

Is Porcelain Paving Slippery When Wet?

Our porcelain patio slabs have anti-slip properties and are designed for exterior use. While it’s possible to find other types of porcelain paving for interior walls and floors, when used within exterior landscaping projects, the paving slabs must be specifically geared towards outdoor use. This means the texture of exterior porcelain slabs is designed for people to comfortably walk on, including in all weathers. In addition, while interior porcelain tiles have a glossy texture, outdoor porcelain patio tiles have a slightly textured surface to improve practicality.

 

Can You Lay Outdoor Porcelain Tiles In The Rain?

It is not advisable to lay outdoor porcelain tiles or slabs in the rain. Vitrified porcelain paving slabs are non-absorbent, and a wet bed of mortar needs an absorbent base to adhere to. Check the weather forecast in advance to avoid rainy weather when wanting to lay outdoor tiles. If it does start to rain mid-project, cover the tiles with tarpaulin and resume once the ground is fully dry. 

 

Do Porcelain Paving Slabs Crack Easily?

No! While the name ‘porcelain’ makes porcelain slabs seem like dainty delicate stones - the vitrification process which outdoor slabs undergo whereby the slabs are heated to high temperatures means they are far more durable than you may think. In addition, porcelain slabs would not be a top choice for garden landscapers if they didn’t offer the right qualities to be used in outdoor projects. However, like any paving material, improper installation—such as inadequate support or an improperly prepared base—can result in cracking. When properly installed, porcelain paving slabs are highly resilient and can endure heavy loads and harsh weather conditions without cracking.
