Marshalls Standard Paving Slabs - Buff 600 x 600 x 50mm

The pimpled texture significantly enhances slip and skid resistance, providing a safer surface, especially in wet conditions.

Each slab measures 600mm in length, 600mm in width, and 50mm in thickness.

These slabs are designed for pedestrian use. For driveway applications, a more heavy-duty product with a greater thickness and a stronger sub-base would typically be required.

Regular sweeping is recommended. For cleaning, use a stiff brush with water and a mild detergent. Avoid aggressive scrubbing or high-pressure washing.

The colour of these specific slabs is Buff, a warm and neutral tone.

A standard bedding sand is typically used on top of a compacted aggregate sub-base. Ensure the sub-base is well-prepared for stability.

A small gap, typically 3-5mm, is recommended between the slabs to allow for jointing material. This also accommodates minor expansion and contraction.

Check the bedding layer beneath the slab. Adjust by adding or removing bedding material and re-leveling the slab. Ensure the sub-base is stable.

Clean the affected areas with a stiff brush, water, and a mild, eco-friendly cleaner. For stubborn growth, specific patio cleaners can be used, following manufacturer instructions. Ensure good drainage to prevent recurrence.

Carefully clear out any loose material from the joints. Re-fill with kiln-dried sand or a suitable jointing compound, sweeping it into the gaps until they are full. Compact gently.

Discoloration can sometimes be caused by surface deposits or efflorescence (a white, powdery residue). Clean the surface as per care instructions. Efflorescence typically weathers away over time.
