Why opt for porcelain paving for your patio?

Adding a patio area can enhance your garden’s aesthetic appeal, increase your home’s value, and make it more functional. Concrete and natural stone paving are traditional, stylish, and durable choices, so why opt for a porcelain patio?

The benefits of porcelain paving include:

• Durability: Porcelain tiles are strong and capable of withstanding heavy foot traffic, scratching, and chipping without losing their original look

• Longevity: The vitrification process that porcelain slabs go through during manufacture makes them resistant to cracking and the elements, meaning they can look as good as new for up to 50 years

• Weather resistance: Porcelain tiles are UV-resistant and non-porous in wet and freezing conditions, so they won’t fade, stain, or crack due to the weather

• Aesthetics: When it comes to creating a stylish, contemporary garden, porcelain is second to none: the smooth texture, sleek finishes, and bold colours of our slabs make them the perfect choice for modern spaces

• Low maintenance: Porcelain is one of the easiest types of paving to keep clean, warm soapy water is all you need to retain its newly installed look

• Slip-resistance: Despite their sleek look, our porcelain tiles have an R11 slip rating, meaning they’re slip-resistant even in wet conditions

What types of porcelain paving slabs are available?

Marshalls’ wide range of porcelain paving slabs offers something to suit every space. Whether you’re upgrading your patio area or carrying out a whole garden makeover, you’re sure to find the solution you’re looking for in our collection. Here are our most popular types of porcelain tiles.

Smooth porcelain tiles

Classic porcelain tiles with a smooth finish, like Arrento Porcelain and Arrento Encore, are perfect for sleek, contemporary designs. Available in a selection of modern colourways, these tiles create a seamless and polished aesthetic.

Natural stone effect styles

Natural stone effect styles combine the organic look of natural materials with the enhanced durability of porcelain. Symphony Natural and Symphony Plus Natural replicate the aesthetic of sandstone and slate, whilst Ardara is a natural stone effect with an element of industrial concrete.

Wood-effect paving

For the natural charm of decking without the expensive and laborious upkeep, opt for wood-effect porcelain paving. Our Symphony Porcelain Plank Paving is a low-maintenance lookalike alternative to timber. 

Metal and aged metal-inspired styles

Add a bold, industrial edge with finishes that mimic weathered or brushed metal and subtly change shade throughout the day. Symphony Elements Metallic is a sophisticated option, whilst Symphony Elements Corten is a unique and rugged statement style that imitates destroyed metals.

Sedimentary stone slabs

Replicate the layered, textured appearance of sedimentary rock with an understated speckled design. Symphony Lapis mirrors the look and feel of Terrazzo-style sedimentary stone for a relaxed European mood. 

Mosaic tiles

Symphony Matte porcelain tiles feature intricate individual mosaics for a unique Mediterranean look. Mosaic tiles are ideal for paving a bold, contemporary porcelain patio or creating colourful focal points in a natural design. 

Is porcelain paving right for my garden?

Porcelain paving tiles are an excellent choice for homeowners looking to combine style and durability. Its sleek, contemporary aesthetic and wide variety of finishes make it versatile enough to suit a variety of patios, from modern minimalist spaces to unique designs.

When it comes to the cost of outdoor tiles, porcelain is at the pricier end of the scale. However, its longevity and minimal maintenance make it a value-for-money investment. Concrete and sandstone tiles are moderately more affordable than porcelain pavers and are also available in various styles and finishes, making them viable alternatives.

Then, add finishing touches to your design with garden walling, paths, and kerbs & edging.
