Paving

Travertine, natural stone and brick, laid on a base built to last. Good paving is as much about what you don't see as what you do.

Our approach

Built from the base up

We treat base preparation as seriously as the finish. Before a single paver is laid, the site is excavated, levelled, compacted and checked for drainage fall, and we choose the right base for each job, from compacted road base and sand to a concrete slab, because no amount of quality stone makes up for a base that wasn't done properly.

Travertine remains the most popular choice across Perth's western suburbs for its natural variation and how it feels underfoot in the heat. We'll talk you through material options and show you samples in person before any work begins.

Common questions

FAQ

Travertine has a naturally porous surface structure that reflects more heat than dense concrete or porcelain. In direct Perth sun this can make a noticeable difference to barefoot comfort — particularly around pool areas.
The most common cause is an inadequate base — either insufficient depth, poor compaction or a base that wasn't suited to the soil conditions. Drainage issues that allow water to pool underneath are the second most common cause. We address both in our preparation process.
Sealing protects travertine and natural stone from staining and makes ongoing cleaning easier. We recommend sealing on completion and typically every two to three years after that, depending on material and exposure.
A standard courtyard of around 40–60 square metres typically takes two to three days, including preparation, laying and grouting. We'll give you a clear timeline at quote stage.
Often yes, depending on how old the existing paving is and whether the same material is still available. Bring us a sample or photo and we'll advise on what's achievable. Natural stone varies batch to batch, so we're honest about what can and can't be matched closely.
