Receiving the goods
Once you receive the goods, we kindly ask you to check for any visible damages and report them to us immediately at support@naturalpavingstore.co.uk. You will then have 72 hours to conduct a thorough inspection of your order. Please do not begin installation until any issues have been resolved.
Cut off time for same day dispatch is 11am.
Order cancellations.
Any orders received after 3 PM can be cancelled or amended on the same day without any charge. Orders placed before 3 PM will already be in our dispatch system and may be subject to a cancellation fee. Please refer to our returns policy for more information.
Once an order has been dispatched and left our yard or warehouse, it cannot be cancelled, and our standard returns policy will apply.
Returns
You must notify us within 14 days from the delivery date if you wish to return your order. We accept returns for full, unopened crates or unopened accessories during this period. However, made-to-measure orders, split packs, loose slabs, and clearance items are non-returnable.
We offer split packs for all types of paving, including porcelain, sandstone, slate, and granite. This allows you to purchase only the specific amount you need, avoiding the waste associated with buying a full pack.
We strongly recommend adding an allowance of 10% extra coverage to account for cuts, breakages, and spares when ordering our split packs.
Please note that with our mixed packs, we can only split by square meter, not by individual slab sizes.
Delivery costs for split packs are the same as those for full packs, regardless of the quantity ordered. Any delivery fees will be calculated at checkout.
To facilitate a seamless and secure shipping process, a handling and packing fee of £85.00 will be applied at checkout. This fee is essential as it covers the necessary procedures of unpacking the items from the original crate, re-packaging them onto a new pallet, and ensuring they are securely wrapped for dispatch.
Payment options.
We accept most major credit and debit cards, including American Express. All payments are processed through our online STRIPE system at the end of your ordering process.
We also offer PayPal services, including the option to pay in three monthly installments.
To enhance security, if you place an order by phone, an invoice will be sent to your email address for payment completion.
Measurement
Make sure you measure from the longest point to the longest point, side to side and front to back. Use our coverage calculator to help you know what your requirement coverage is.
Add 10% Extra
The recommended industry standard is that you add 10% extra to your total measurements to allow for cuts, wastage, breakages and spares. By placing your order with us, you confirm that you have added this 10% extra as part of your own calculations and purchase.
Minimum Order
We can sell the paving by the sqm, however, for optimal transit, we recommend ordering a minimum of 5 sqm to ensure proper pallet weight.
Coverage
The coverage for each pack size is available on all products under the ‘Specification’ section. This indicates the area that can be covered, including the recommended joint width. Additionally, we provide the pack size, which indicates the number of slabs included in each pack.
Cut of times
For both standard and premium deliveries, the cutoff time for same-day dispatch is 11 a.m. If you need your order urgently and have missed this cutoff time, please call our team, and we will let you know if there is anything we can do to assist you.
Large Orders
Our website showcases all current promotions and discounts, reflecting our commitment to providing the best prices possible. For larger orders, we invite you to call us at 01329 238150, where our dedicated team may be able to offer additional savings.
Samples
We provide a sample service for all our paving products, allowing you to experience the materials before placing an order. You can find this option at the bottom of each product page or on our dedicated samples page.
Porcelain paving is a man-made product crafted in batches and may exhibit variations in colour and texture from batch to batch. This potential variance means that the porcelain you receive upon ordering may differ slightly from the samples sent, or our showroom displays viewed before making your purchase. To maintain product consistency, we advise against combining different sizes as these will inevitably be different batch codes. It is industry standard to allow an additional 10% on all orders.
Should you have any concerns about these variations, please reach out to our sales team for personalised guidance. We recommend keeping note of the ‘batch colour code’ labelled on the packaging of the delivered porcelain. This is a white label of the side of the pallet and also the packing of each individual slab.
While we strive to source the same batch for future orders, this isn’t guaranteed. Therefore, we encourage ordering sufficient quantities initially to maintain uniformity in your project.

Premium Quality & Durability
Granite cobble setts are quarried from 100% natural granite and precision-cut for consistent size and shape. Their dense, weather-resistant composition ensures they can withstand frost, rain, and heavy traffic without cracking or deteriorating. The naturally textured surface enhances traction, making them a safe choice for both residential and commercial outdoor spaces across the UK.
Key Benefits of Granite Cobble Setts:
✅ Durable & Weather-Resistant
✅ Naturally Textured, Non-Slip Surface
✅ Low Maintenance
✅ Frost & Impact Resistant
✅ Elegant, Timeless Design
1. Aesthetic Appeal
Natural Colours & Variation:
Silver Granite cobble setts are available in a range of natural shades, from soft greys and earthy tones to deeper charcoals and blacks. The subtle variations in each sett create a visually appealing, organic look that complements both modern and traditional landscapes.
Unique Textured Finish:
Unlike manufactured alternatives, natural granite retains its unique character. The lightly textured surface enhances grip while showcasing the stone’s natural grain and tonal variation, creating a refined, high-quality finish for driveways, patios, and pathways.
2. Exceptional Durability
Granite cobbles are renowned for their strength, density, and long-lasting performance. Resistant to chipping, scratching, and staining, they maintain their appearance for decades—even under heavy vehicle or pedestrian traffic. Their natural imperviousness to water, frost, and temperature fluctuations makes them ideal for the UK climate.
3. Safety & Slip Resistance
The textured surface provides inherent traction, making cobble setts a safe choice for wet or high-traffic areas such as driveways, pool surrounds, and garden pathways.
4. Long-Term Value
Though the initial investment may be higher than other materials, granite cobble setts offer unmatched longevity and minimal maintenance, delivering excellent long-term value. Their natural beauty, strength, and durability make them a practical and stylish choice for any outdoor project.
5. Environmentally Friendly
Granite is a natural, low-impact material. Its long lifespan reduces the need for replacements, and responsibly sourced granite supports sustainable landscaping practices.
6. Popular Applications
Driveways and vehicle access areas
Garden pathways and courtyards
Patios and terraces
Pool surrounds and wet zones
Commercial outdoor spaces
7. Key Considerations
Installation: Ensure a fully level, stable base; cobbles are heavy and rigid.
Cutting & Shaping: Use appropriate stone-cutting tools for precise edges.
Jointing: Use natural stone-compatible grout to maintain appearance and durability.
Batch Selection: Granite is natural—select sufficient setts from the same batch for consistent colour and patterning.
For best results, order 10–15% extra to account for cuts, waste, or unforeseen breakages during installation.
Installing Granite Cobble Setts – Professional Tips for a Durable, Beautiful Finish
Installing granite cobble setts requires careful preparation and attention to detail to achieve a long-lasting, visually striking finish. By following the right techniques, you can ensure your cobble driveway, patio, or pathway is both durable and low-maintenance.
When your granite cobbles arrive, they may appear dusty or slightly dull. This is completely normal and does not indicate a defect. Lightly wetting the surface of the cobbles before installation can help reveal their natural colours and subtle variations, ensuring a more vibrant and consistent look across your project.
If your order comes on multiple pallets, mix cobbles from each pallet during installation. This prevents noticeable colour bands and creates a balanced, natural appearance for the entire paved area.
For long-lasting stability, apply a priming slurry (SBR or suitable primer) to the underside of each cobble. This forms a protective layer between the stone and the mortar or bedding base, preventing natural salts and minerals from leaching through over time. Priming ensures your cobbles stay firmly in place and maintain their durability for decades.
To achieve precise edges around borders, corners, or obstacles, use a diamond-tipped blade with a suitable stone-cutting tool. Cut slowly and carefully to minimize the risk of chipping or cracking, ensuring professional-looking joints and a smooth, clean finish.
For stable, long-lasting joints, use an all-weather brush-in jointing compound. This modern alternative to traditional sand provides excellent stability and prevents movement between the setts. Avoid acid-based cleaners after installation, as they can damage granite surfaces. For regular cleaning, simply use water or a pH-neutral detergent to maintain the natural beauty of your cobbles.
✅ Lightly wet cobbles before installation to enhance their natural colour.
✅ Mix cobbles from multiple pallets for even colour distribution.
✅ Apply a priming slurry to the underside of each sett for adhesion and protection.
✅ Cut carefully with a diamond-tipped blade for precise edges.
✅ Use all-weather brush-in jointing compound for stable, durable joints.
✅ Avoid acidic cleaners to protect the granite’s surface.
Caring for Your Granite Cobble Setts – Cleaning, Sealing, and Maintenance Tips
Installing granite cobble setts can be a messy process, so it’s important to take care during installation to prevent staining. Any residue such as wet mortar, cement, or debris should be cleaned immediately. Once dried, these substances can be difficult to remove and may leave marks on the granite surface.
Granite is naturally dense and less porous than other stones, but it can still absorb dirt, organic matter, or moisture if left untreated. Spills, wet leaves, moss, or bird droppings can all cause staining over time. To protect your cobbles, it is recommended to seal them approximately 12 weeks after installation. Sealing helps prevent moisture penetration, reduces the risk of frost damage, and inhibits moss, mould, and algae growth.
During the curing and drying period, you may notice efflorescence, which appears as a white or light grey powder on the surface. This occurs when natural salts within the granite are drawn to the surface, particularly in damp or humid conditions. While it can look unsightly, efflorescence does not compromise the strength or durability of your cobble setts.
By following these simple steps, your granite cobble driveway, patio, or pathway will remain clean, durable, and visually appealing for many years.
