Blue granite decorative stone, Lightwater

Blue granite decorative stoneDrainage worksGround levelling

Blue granite decorative stone laid across a site in Lightwater, Surrey. Before the stone went down we sorted the drainage and levelled the ground, so the finished surface sits evenly and rainwater soaks away rather than pooling. The blue-grey granite gives a clean, natural finish across the open area and frontage, framed by the boundary fencing.

The preparation photographs record a different stage of the same project. Drainage pipework is visible before it is covered, and the overhead view shows the ground layout before the blue granite surface is laid. The views below distinguish that preparation from the surfacing after installation.

About this kind of project

Blue granite is a hard-wearing decorative stone with a cool blue-grey colour that catches the light. It is a cost-effective alternative to block paving or resin for large areas, frontages and access drives, and rain drains straight through it rather than running off. The finish depends on what is underneath: the ground needs digging out and levelling, a compacted sub-base, and a membrane or gravel grid where needed, so the stone stays in place, doesn't rut under tyres and keeps weeds down.
