London Stone now offer Sawn Yorkstone off the shelf

BALI Registered Affiliate member London Stone have announced that, for the first time ever, Sawn Buff and Grey Yorkstone are now available 'off the shelf'. Gone are the days of waiting for 6 – 8 weeks for this admired, indigenous stone.

From September 2018, Britannia Buff and Grey Yorkstone will be available off-the-shelf in standard paving sizes of 900x600, 600x600, and 600x400mm at a thickness of 30mm. To complement the offer, 40mm thick Bullnosed step treads, in 2000x500mm and 900x500mm sizes, and Copings at 600x300mm with a neat Pencil Round Edge, are also available.

Managing Director, Steve Walley, says, “Gone are the days of waiting weeks for Yorkstone. In an increasingly challenging market, we hope that having this material at our client’s disposal is as effective as it is innovative. Being able to offer Sawn Yorkstone, which carries such prestige, to our customers off-the-shelf is a real coup for London Stone.”

From the show grounds of Chelsea and Hampton Court to the entrances of period properties and streets and cityscapes throughout the UK. Sawn Yorkstone has long been the ‘go-to’ stone of choice for designers, landscape architects and landscapers alike. Combing classical elegance with a naturally hard-wearing nature, Sawn Yorkstone is also the perfect choice for more modern schemes where less is most definitely more. Britannia Buff Yorkstone is a tight-grained, even-textured sandstone with a warm character and a classic buff colour that evokes timeless quality and British class. Grey Yorkstone combines silvery graphite tones with darker veining. A sawn and lightly-brushed surface add a subtleness and crispness.
