Why Buy Budget Porcelain Paving Slabs?

London Stone’s budget-friendly porcelain paving slabs offer the perfect mix of quality and affordability, achieved through careful research into colours and our strong partnership with manufacturers. Our Budget Porcelain range, produced in India and Italy, provides a wide selection of fully vitrified, hard-wearing, scratch-resistant and frost-resistant slabs. With prices starting from just £27.00 + VAT m², our range is designed to meet budget constraints without compromising on quality.

A Vast Choice of Colours and Realistic Stone Effects

Our Budget Porcelain paving range focuses on popular, timeless grey shades such as Charcoal, Light Grey, Platinum Grey, and Steel Grey. Paler, beige options include Ash Beige and Cream.

Additionally, we offer natural stone replications like our ever-popular Kandla Grey and Raj Green, developed to closely resemble Indian Sandstone, but with a more modern rectified edge. This, along with lower levels of ongoing maintenance, are just two of the advantages of porcelain paving for patios. Our Italian options include Venetian Beige, Venetian Grey, and Astor Grey, known for their elegant and classy finishes.

Reliable and Consistent Colouring

Budget Porcelain slabs offer consistent colouring, ensuring every slab is tonally appropriate, unlike natural stone which can have more unpredictable, natural colour variation. This makes them ideal for clients who prefer uniformity in their outdoor spaces.

Conversely, each type of porcelain contains a set number of tile patterns, allowing you to spread different pavers evenly, and avoid a pattern-repeat. This information can be found under the Specification & Dimensions tab on each product page.

Garden Designers’ Choice

Our Budget Porcelain paving slabs have been selected by designers for award-winning show gardens at RHS (Royal Horticulture Society) shows. Notable mentions include Light Grey Porcelain at the 2021 RHS Chelsea Flower Show and Cream Porcelain Planks at the 2021 RHS Tatton Park Flower Show. Being used by leading designers and landscapers at these shows emphasises the high quality and aesthetic appeal of our Budget Porcelain range.

Budget Porcelain Paving Slabs for Balconies and Pedestals

Porcelain paving slabs are perfect for areas with weight limitations, such as roof terraces and balconies, as ably demonstrated in Landform’s Balcony Garden at RHS Chelsea 2021. Due to the manufactured strength of porcelain, 20mm tiles can be installed on pedestal systems, eliminating the need for weighty sub-bases or mortar beds. The lightweight nature of our Budget Porcelain collection makes it versatile for various settings, including using the material in rented properties where making longer-term changes to a garden can be difficult.

A Wide Choice of Paving Sizes, And Steps & Copings

Our Budget Porcelain slabs are available in various sizes, to suit your design style. Many are available in the classic 900x600mm format or as a 600x600mm tile, emulating the UK’s favoured natural paving sizes. We also offer unique format options such as plank paving, providing exciting design opportunities for patios and paths.

All our Budget Porcelain is also available in matching step treads and copings, to give you a sleek, continuous look across your project. Choose from a wide range of edge profiles, to perfectly suit your chosen style.

Quality Guaranteed to Last

All our porcelain paving items are available with a ten-year homeowner’s guarantee, assuring you of their high quality and durability. Our products are designed to withstand the varying weather conditions that are commonplace in the UK, making them a reliable choice for any outdoor space.

Budget Porcelain Paving – FAQ’s

What is Budget Porcelain Paving, and why is it so cheap?

Budget Porcelain paving slabs are manufactured in India and Italy.

Durable, non-porous and low-maintenance, porcelain paving is easy to clean. Leveraging established relationships within our supply networks, London Stone has been able to bring high-quality, yet affordable porcelain paving to our customers. By selecting a streamlined range and selecting colours and textures that are among the market's most sought-after, we can keep the retail prices of these products low.

Our Luxury, Premium and Budget Italian porcelain paving is all made in the same way, using the same high-quality porcelain manufacturing process.

Our Indian porcelain paving slabs are fully rectified and vitrified, but are only coloured on the top surface of each tile, so if you are installing these pavers with an exposed, or profiled edge, be aware that there will be some slight variation in colour from the top surface.

Do You Offer an Installation Service for Your Budget Porcelain Paving Range?

London Stone is a supply-only business; however, our Landscape Specialist Scheme could help you find a suitable landscaper or garden designer. Always ensure the tradesperson has experience laying porcelain paving and obtain several quotations.

If choosing to lay our porcelain paving yourself, we have created this handy installation video which will help you to ensure that you effectively lay your material, to achieve the best possible results.
