Product Information

Full details

The Talasey Cava Quartz Porcelain Paving Slabs in the Lustre finish are designed for homeowners and landscapers seeking a premium, low-maintenance outdoor flooring solution that mimics the authentic look of natural quartzite. These 20mm thick slabs offer exceptional durability, resistance to environmental stressors like frost and algae, and a slip-resistant surface suitable for patios and garden paths. While these porcelain pavers provide a sophisticated aesthetic and high performance, they require professional installation techniques—such as specific sub-base preparation and the use of appropriate primers—to ensure long-term structural integrity.

FAQs

Do I need to seal Talasey Cava Quartz?

No. Due to the vitrification process and low porosity, these slabs do not require sealing.

Can I use a jet wash on these slabs?

Yes, you can use a pressure washer on a low-to-medium setting to clean the surface, though it is usually unnecessary for routine maintenance.

Is this product suitable for driveway use?

These 20mm slabs are primarily designed for pedestrian foot traffic and patios; consult with your installer regarding specific sub-base requirements for vehicle loads.

How do I cut porcelain paving slabs?

Use a heavy-duty wet tile saw equipped with a high-quality diamond blade designed specifically for 20mm porcelain.

What is the benefit of a color-bodied paver?

A color-bodied paver has the same color throughout the tile, meaning the edge profile and any surface wear will match the top of the slab.

Troubleshooting

Slabs moving or rocking after installation

This usually indicates the mortar bed was not solid or the primer was not applied correctly; ensure a full bed of mortar is used.

Visible white residue on the surface (efflorescence)

Clean the surface with a pH-neutral porcelain cleaner to remove construction dust or mortar residue.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Resistant to permanent staining due to low porosity
  • Does not require chemical sealers or specialized treatments
  • High slip resistance rating for improved safety
  • Color-bodied construction hides chips and wear
  • Frost-resistant material prevents cracking in cold climates

Cons

  • Requires professional installation due to weight and cutting requirements
  • Initial investment is higher than traditional natural stone
  • Specific primer and slurry base are necessary for proper adhesion

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal results, these porcelain slabs must be laid on a full, solid bed of mortar over a prepared sub-base. It is critical to apply a high-quality paving primer to the underside of each slab before laying to ensure a permanent bond with the mortar bed. Do not attempt to lay these slabs on a 'dot and dab' pattern, as this will lead to slab failure. For cutting, use professional-grade diamond-tipped blades specifically designed for porcelain to achieve a clean edge without chipping. Maintenance is minimal; standard cleaning involves simply hosing down the patio with water and mild detergent. The non-porous nature of the vitrified surface ensures that oil, organic matter, and grime are easily removed without aggressive scrubbing or abrasive cleaners.
