Explaining exactly what Indian Sandstone is has been a most popular question, however the answer remains the same. It is a sedimentary rock that has been compressed over time. It is made essentially of quartz grains cemented together. The durability and strength of these rocks depend on the cementing material and the best quality Indian sandstone, for garden paving, should be of fine grain and uniform texture.
Indian sandstone is one of the safest surfaces to have installed as it is not slippery, in fact it's naturally slip resistant. This is obviously a huge advantage in its favour, and one of the biggest reasons why Indian sandstone is one of the most popular types of paving used in the UK, due to weather.
