SANDSTONES FROM INDIA

Sandstone tiles and sandstone paving can be used almost anywhere and can last a life time if maintenance is done right. Sandstone is impeccable for indoors or outdoors, this is because of its natural features. When wet, sandstone absorbs the water maintaining its grip, this makes it suitable for all wet areas, especially pools. In regards to indoor uses, sandstone customarily comes in a honed finish, this means the tile has been refined allowing it be smooth and pleasant.

When it comes to outdoor areas, it is important to evaluate the type of environment the tiles will be in. For example, a beautiful white sandstone would not be a good idea to place in a farmers backyard that is prone to mud and excessive dirt. It would be better suited with a beige sandstone where dirt and mud does not show so noticeably. It is equally important to consider if the area will be exposed to salt or chlorine, if you decide to use sandstone around a pool or wet area you should consult professionals about the sealers they recommend. Some sandstones are less dense then others, this means the type of sealer you will require will need to have a binding agent within it. A binding agent is solely used to harden the sandstone to protect it from salt attacks. If due diligence is performed prior to your sandstone purchase, you will only reap the benefits of the natural wonder.
