The Bradstone Riven Utility Slabs are designed for homeowners and contractors seeking a reliable, functional paving solution for utility zones, garden pathways, and shed bases. These concrete slabs offer a classic, weathered aesthetic that blends well with traditional outdoor environments while providing a durable, hard-wearing surface. While they are an excellent, cost-effective choice for heavy-use utility areas, their traditional riven texture may require more effort to clean compared to smooth, contemporary porcelain or polished stone finishes.

These are primarily designed for utility areas, pathways, and shed bases. They are not recommended for heavy vehicle use.
Yes, you can cut these slabs using an angle grinder fitted with a diamond blade suitable for concrete.
Calculate your total area in square metres and divide by 12.15, rounding up to the nearest whole pack to account for cutting waste.
Each slab is substantial and durable; please handle with care, preferably using two people or mechanical lifting aids.
No, you must prepare a proper sub-base to ensure the longevity of the slabs and prevent uneven settling or drainage issues.
The sub-base may not be level or sufficiently compacted. Lift the slab and add or remove bedding material before re-seating.
Use a stiff-bristle broom and mild detergent to scrub the texture, followed by a thorough rinse with clean water.
Inspect for movement under the slab. If the slab has settled, it may need to be re-bedded and the mortar joint replaced.
For optimal results, clear the area of vegetation and excavate to the required depth. Lay a sub-base of 100-150 mm of compacted aggregate. Apply a 30-50 mm bed of mortar or sharp sand to lay the slabs, ensuring a 5-10 mm joint gap between each unit for expansion. Use a rubber mallet to tap slabs into place, checking levels regularly. Once laid, point the joints with a suitable exterior mortar. To care for your slabs, sweep regularly to prevent dirt buildup in the riven surface, and use a pressure washer on a low-to-medium setting if deep cleaning is required.
