Porcelain Paving Experts in Galway
We provide professional porcelain paving installation for patios, pathways and outdoor spaces throughout Galway. Porcelain delivers consistent colour that lasts, requires very little upkeep and offers exceptional durability that conventional paving materials just can’t compete with.
Porcelain paving works brilliantly for various outdoor areas in Galway, such as:
- Patios and seating areas – The non-porous surface won’t stain from food, drinks or garden furniture
- Pathways and walkways – Keeps its colour without fading, giving you long lasting good looks
- Pool and spa surrounds – R11-rated varieties offer excellent slip resistance in wet conditions
Porcelain needs different groundwork preparation compared to natural stone. Our installations use either a concrete base with adhesive bonding or a pedestal system for raised installations like roof terraces. The concrete base approach involves laying a 100mm reinforced concrete slab, then fixing tiles with flexible adhesive and using specialist grouting compounds to guarantee proper porcelain bonding.
We always suggest resin grout for porcelain installations because it provides flexibility, better weather resistance, and can be colour-matched to either blend in or contrast with the porcelain tiles.
For patio areas, we can use a sand and cement bed installation similar to natural stone methods, though the adhesive approach provides better long term stability. Installation timeframes usually run from 2 to 4 days for a typical patio project from beginning to end.
Alongside porcelain paving, we provide other surfacing options for your outdoor areas, including resin patios, sandstone installations, granite stone patios and more.
