See Full DescriptionThe Moreton concrete paving range is designed to bring low-cost, attractive and durable utility paving slabs to homeowners for a range of garden applications such as paving bin areas, shed and greenhouse bases. They are available in two colours (grey and buff) and two size formats (600 x 600 mm and 450 x 450 mm).
If you're after the ideal paving for a utility area (meaning that it is used less often and sees less footfall/traffic across it) then these slabs are the perfect solution. They are low-cost and specified to meet the needs of utility paving, offering versatile, aesthetically pleasing quality paving at a budget price.
Moreton Textured Concrete Slabs range are budget utility-style concrete slabs to suit homeowners looking to pave areas where less foot traffic is necessary.
The textured finish and straight edges of Moreton Paving provides a contemporary aesthetic, taking its styling from modernist architecture. The concrete slabs will bring a smart and ordered appearance that offers an ideal base for a variety of utility applications such as bin areas, shed and greenhouse bases etc.
Moreton slabs will provide your paved area with a consistent look and feel that offers uniform colour and tonal variation. Because these slabs are manufactured rather than quarried, their aesthetics are factory-controlled - and so they provide precise and consistent colour and tonal control - meaning you get exactly the look and feel you were expecting.
This colour pigment uniformity and aesthetic control/predictability are the main performance advantages presented by concrete paving over natural stone paving.
These slabs are manufactured using a hydraulic-press dry-cast method, meaning consequently that they possess greater strength and durability than alternative wet-cast decorative concrete slabs.
This paving should be laid on a full bed of mortar (laying course) of approximately 50 mm depth, which in-turn should sit on a compacted sub-base of suitable material (MOT Type-1 hardcore) which should be at least 150 mm in depth.
The paving slabs should securely bonded to the laying course by adding a coat of priming slurry to the back of the slabs immediately prior to laying them.
Pointing your patio couldn’t be any easier! Gone are the days of time-consuming traditional pointing with sand and cement. Paving Direct recommends using a brush in compound such as Pavestone Pointfix. This is a two-part jointing compound. One pack contains epoxy resin within the compound and the other epoxy hardener. Mixing and applying Pointfix is much cleaner and easier than traditional sand and cement mortar, as you simply just mix the contents within the tub and brush into the joints.
Pointfix is available to buy in two options. Either as a single tub with 7 m² coverage, or as a cost-saving triple-contractor pack with 21 m² coverage.
Concrete flags are not fully cured when you install them. The curing process can take many years to complete. Therefore, there are a few precautionary steps you need to take to ensure that differential curing (varying rates of curing) are avoided. Most of these step involve ensuring that water, moisture and damp are not adversely effecting the slabs.
By taking these steps, you can help avoid some of the potential causes of differential curing/weathering with concrete flags.
To install and lay concrete patio paving slabs, you'll need to do the following steps:
To calculate the areas of paving in square-metres (m2), the amount of sub-base hardcore or the amount of sand and cement you'll need for the mortar mix bedding course, please refer to our paving calculators.
For the full step-by-step guide with videos for each step, see our How to Lay Patio Paving Slabs article.
Concrete is a porous material and contains tiny capillaries and micro-fissures throughout its structure. Consequently, concrete paving is susceptible to water-based chemical erosion (acidic corrosion), physical erosion (frost action), and from staining from waterborne grime, salts and other mineral and particulate deposits. Therefore, as the UK has high winter humidity (generally 80-90%) and damp conditions are the norm, we recommend that you help protect and elongate the life of your paving by sealing the slabs against the water/damp based issues. Our impregnating sealers are designed to enter the capillaries and micro-fissures in the slabs, blocking those spaces to prevent water entering the paving.
In addition to sealing the slabs, we recommend ensuring you brush away leaves, dirt and other detritus regularly, especially in the autumn and winter when leaves, twigs, seeds and other windfall materials are likely to fall on your patio. If left on your paving, especially if damp, and worse still, allowed to rot down and become mulch-like, your paving will almost certainly acquire brown stains from the release of tannins from the windfall materials (think a used tea bag left on a kitchen counter for a model of what will happen).
As well as brushing off dirt and windfall materials, give your patio a hose down with water every so often. Use a low-pressure hose or keep any jet-wash far enough away from the slabs to ensure you don't damage them with the high-pressure water jet. For more stubborn stains and the build-up of grime, we recommend using a specialist non-acidic patio cleaner.
