The Stonewise Tandur Grey Tumbled Limestone Setts offer a premium, natural stone paving solution with a classic, aged cobblestone finish, ideal for driveways, patios, and pathways. A key benefit is their natural slip resistance and durability, suitable for various weather conditions. One caveat to consider is that natural stone can have slight variations in colour and size.

Yes, Tandur Grey Tumbled Limestone Setts are designed to be durable and can withstand vehicle loads when installed on a properly prepared sub-base.
The tumbling process creates softly rounded edges and a naturally aged cobblestone finish, providing traditional character and a more comfortable walking surface.
Installation requires a good understanding of landscaping and base preparation. While DIY is possible, professional installation is recommended for optimal results, especially for driveways.
Regular sweeping is recommended. For cleaning, use water and a stiff brush. Mild, pH-neutral cleaners can be used for tougher stains. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Natural limestone is durable and its colour is generally stable. It may develop a natural patina over time, which is characteristic of natural stone.
These versatile setts can be installed in various patterns, including herringbone, stretcher bond, basket weave, or classic cobbled layouts.
Check the sub-base for adequate compaction and leveling. Ensure individual setts are seated firmly in the bedding layer and adjust as needed.
Ensure joints are fully packed with appropriate jointing material. Regular sweeping and prompt removal of organic matter can help. Consider using a weed-resisting membrane beneath the sub-base.
Natural stone can vary slightly. For persistent staining, identify the source (e.g., moss, organic matter) and use a pH-neutral cleaner specifically designed for natural stone. Avoid pressure washing at excessive force.
The jointing material may have washed out. Re-fill the joints thoroughly with kiln-dried sand or a suitable polymeric sand and lightly compact.
This could indicate inadequate sub-base support or excessive point loads. Ensure the base is stable and that vehicles (if applicable) do not exceed the load-bearing capacity for the installation type.
Setup:
Proper installation is crucial for the longevity and performance of your Tandur Grey Tumbled Limestone Setts. It is recommended to install them on a well-compacted sub-base of hardcore, followed by a layer of sharp sand or grit for bedding. Ensure the base is adequately sloped for drainage. Setts should be laid tightly together, allowing for jointing material (such as kiln-dried sand or a suitable polymeric sand) to fill the gaps and lock them in place.
Compatibility:
These setts are compatible with most standard landscaping practices. They can be laid on concrete or a granular base. Compatibility with existing paving or structures should be assessed on a project-by-project basis, ensuring proper edging and support are provided. They are suitable for use with underfloor heating systems if installed with appropriate precautions and heat-resistant adhesives on a suitable base, though this is less common for external paving.
Care:
Care for your limestone setts by regularly sweeping away debris. For cleaning, use water and a stiff brush. Mild, pH-neutral cleaning agents can be used for tougher stains, but avoid harsh chemicals or acid-based cleaners which can damage the stone. Re-sanding of joints may be necessary periodically to maintain stability and prevent weed growth. Natural stone may develop a patina over time, which is considered part of its natural beauty.
