Indian Sandstone Built for Macclesfield Weather Conditions

Macclesfield experiences frequent rainfall, damp conditions and seasonal frost typical of North West England. These conditions require strong paving materials combined with correct installation to prevent movement, cracking and water retention.

Our Indian sandstone is naturally dense, frost-resistant and designed for year-round outdoor use. When installed correctly on a full mortar bed with proper drainage, it provides excellent long-term performance.

Ground Conditions and Installation in Macclesfield

Many areas in and around Macclesfield feature clay-heavy soils, which expand and contract depending on moisture levels. Proper groundwork is essential to maintain paving stability.

  • Install 100–150mm compacted MOT Type 1 sub-base
  • Use a full mortar bed (avoid spot bedding)
  • Allow correct fall for drainage
  • Use edge restraints for structural support
