Chinese Bluestone Pavers are the cheapest quality of bluestone pavers and comes with around 30% – 50% catspaws on the surface. Its surface contains a mix of a blizzard and normal catspaws which can be filled while grouting to give a sleeker and more defined finish. Sealing is highly recommended for these type of bluestone pavers as it prevents the paver from contamination, unwanted internal damage and preserves the integrity of the stone. 

As the name suggests, Chinese Bluestone Pavers are exported from China. 

Laying Recommendations: You can lay Chinese bluestone pavers in your outdoor areas such as around the swimming pool, patio paving, pathway pavers, walkway paths, backyard and front yard flooring. However, Chinese bluestone requires high maintenance and more often sealing over time.

Description

These sawn finish Chinese bluestone tiles and pavers are the standard grade of bluestone that is found commonly all over Australia. This is a standard grade which means this variety of bluestone has about 30%-50% Cat’s Paw on the tiles surface and has more natural colour variation. This is our budget sawn face bluestone which means you can get the standard look at a much cheaper price. Thickness and size variation is the industry standard of +-3mm, because of this we recommend laying with a 8mm grout joint and always lay in a brick bond pattern. This is the cheapest natural Bluestone on offer, anywhere in Australia. As the name suggests, our Chinese bluestone pavers are exported from China and is gaining popularity in Australia because of its gorgeous, light grayish texture and classic look.

Chinese bluestone is a cheap alternative to Harkaway bluestone and still looks fantastic around pools and other outdoor areas.

WHERE TO LAY: Chinese bluestone pavers are perfect for outdoor paving areas such as around swimming pool pavers, pool coping tile, patio pavers, driveway pavers, stepping stones, garden paving areas, balcony and other large outdoor areas. Quality- High non-slip rating, luxury textured finish, consistent colour, easy to install and low maintenance required. Sealing is strongly recommended to protect the natural beauty and colour of the stone.

As an extremely cost-effective and cheap solution, Chinese bluestone pavers still exhibit bluestone’s natural beauty. We recommend you follow the following guidelines when purchasing our bluestone pavers: 12mm thick: Tiles should be laid directly onto a concrete slab or great for balconies, decks or indoor floor tiles. 20mm thick: Pavers can be laid as above OR onto a compacted road base into a wet slurry of sand and cement 30mm thick: Pavers can be laid as both above or onto a compacted road base into a dry sand bed, great for tiling over easements or where you require water permeation. There will be some cats paw present in this stone. Generally, a tile will only have a maximum of 10-15% of surface coverage. Expect a dimensional or thickness variation of +-3mm. We strongly recommend laying in a brick pattern with a 8mm grout joint.

Sealing & Maintenance

Sealing Bluestone

Bluestone tiles and pavers can be sealed as a peace of mind to ensure bluestone stays in pristine condition. It’s highly recommended particularly in areas where there may be high spillage to protect the lustre of the bluestone tiles and pavers.

If you choose not to seal your tiles, make sure you clean up spills immediately to avoid staining the tiles. Use only a penetrating invisible type sealer (no colour change) similar to Tasman Chemicals STONE SHIELD and ALWAYS follow the sealer manufacturers instructions when applying. We stock a FULL range of suitable sealers.

Cleaning

Do not use Hydrochloric acid for clean up as this can cause minerals present in the stone to react adversely.To clean prior to sealing simply pressure wash the stone and ensure nozzle is never closer than 300mm to the surface of the stone.

Maintenance

Just sweep when needed. Bluestone responds well to high pressure cleaning with a domestic machine, please keep the nozzle about 300mm minimum away from face of the bluestone pavers and tiles. A solution of mild detergent and water can be applied prior to pressure cleaning.
