DIFFERENT SANDSTONE

The different finishes in which the sandstone is available is something which makes it distinct. The two finishes available with sandstone paving are- Smooth and Riven.  Smooth finishing is actually very beautiful and great for the areas that do not see a lot of foot-falls. It has been machine worked once split for main paving rock. Riven finishing is perfect for outdoor use and areas receiving a lot of foot traffic. Riven texture is when the slab is split from the main paving rock, leaving ridges in the paving surface.
