Why Yorkstone steps are the right choice for your home

What is Yorkstone?

Yorkstone is a term that can cover a huge variety of sandstone, but in order to qualify as true Yorkstone, it needs to come from quarries in Yorkshire that have been around since the medieval times. The stone is incredibly tight grained and can contain traces of quartz, clay, iron oxides and even mica as well.

So what else do you need to know about Yorkstone? You should note that it is produced from diamond sawn and it is non-slip as well. Of course, it is incredibly hard wearing and this alone means that it can last 100 years of more. You can get it in a huge range of colours and this will help you to match the look of your home perfectly. On top of this, it is considered to be a very traditional building material that is approved by a huge range of local authorities. The colours that are available allow you to more than transform and compliment your home, not to mention that the Yorkshire stone can offer a sharp and very stylish solution.

Why use Yorkstone for your steps?

If you are having steps installed and they’re likely to be getting some heavy usage then you know that yorkstone is going to be a great option for you and this is one of the many reasons why people keep on choosing it as their number one stone of choice, time and time again. As an added bonus, the natural stone is also a non-slip material making it perfect for entrance steps that will be exposed to rain and bad weather.
