We install it on a full wet mortar bed to ensure it never sinks or shifts.

Frequently Asked Questions About Patios
Which is better: Porcelain or Sandstone?
It depends on your preference. Porcelain offers a modern look and requires almost zero maintenance since it doesn't absorb water. Sandstone provides a beautiful, natural, rustic look but requires occasional power washing and sealing to maintain its color.
Are porcelain tiles slippery when wet?
No! Outdoor porcelain tiles are specifically manufactured with a textured, anti-slip surface (usually rated R11). They provide excellent grip, even in heavy Irish rain, making them perfectly safe for families and children.
How long does it take to lay a patio?
Most standard-sized patios take between 3 to 5 days. Porcelain can sometimes take slightly longer than sandstone due to the precision cutting required and the application of a primer slurry to the back of each tile.
