What is the primary colour of Tandur Yellow Limestone?
Tandur Yellow Limestone features a beautiful warm color palette with stunning golden-yellow to warm honey tones as its primary color. Natural variations include bright sunshine yellow, golden amber hues, warm orange undertones, soft honey-beige tones, and occasional lighter cream areas. The stone creates a bright, welcoming atmosphere and brings light and warmth to outdoor spaces. The warm yellow tones are particularly striking in sunlight, creating an inviting Mediterranean or cottage garden feel. The color remains stable and doesn't fade, ensuring your outdoor space maintains its sunny disposition for decades.
Does the colour of Tandur Yellow Limestone vary between slabs?
Yes, natural color variation is one of Tandur Yellow's beautiful characteristics. It features moderate natural variation - enough for visual interest without looking mismatched, with each slab unique yet maintaining a cohesive overall palette of warm yellows, golds, and honey tones. Some slabs may be brighter golden-yellow whilst others show warmer orange or amber undertones, with occasional cream or lighter beige tones and natural fossil markings adding authenticity. This creates dynamic, natural-looking surfaces rather than monotonous uniformity, adding depth and preventing manufactured appearance. We recommend mixing slabs from multiple packs during installation to ensure even distribution of color variations. Whilst slabs vary naturally, all colors are stable and permanent, maintaining their warm character indefinitely.
What finishes are available for Tandur Yellow Limestone?
Tandur Yellow Limestone is available in three premium finishes. Smooth Honed Finish provides refined, polished appearance perfect for contemporary designs whilst maintaining slip-resistant properties. Natural Riven Finish features textured surface with natural undulations, providing excellent slip resistance and authentic stone character ideal for traditional or cottage gardens. Riven Tumbled Finish combines riven texture with softened, rounded edges creating an aged, weathered appearance perfect for period properties. Edge treatments include sawn edges for clean lines, hand-cut for traditional craftsmanship, and tumbled edges for aged appearance. All finishes come in 22mm calibrated thickness with consistent sizing for easy installation.
Is Tandur Yellow Limestone suitable for wet areas like poolside or bathrooms?
Yes! Tandur Yellow Limestone is well-suited for wet areas when properly treated. For poolside and outdoor wet areas, it's an excellent choice with natural slip-resistant texture, lower water absorption than sandstone, resistance to chlorine and pool chemicals, and warm yellow tones creating inviting, resort-like atmosphere. For bathrooms and indoor wet areas, it's very suitable, being naturally water-resistant when properly sealed, creating bright, warm, spa-like environments, and easy to clean and maintain. The stone must be sealed with quality stone sealer for optimal water resistance, and you should choose appropriate finish (honed for light water exposure, tumbled or riven for heavy wet areas), ensure proper installation with adequate drainage, and re-seal periodically every 2-3 years. The stone doesn't become slippery like polished surfaces and remains comfortable underfoot.
What are the standard sizes available for Tandur Yellow Limestone slabs?
We offer Tandur Yellow Limestone in versatile sizes including paving slabs in 600x900mm (most popular), 900x600mm, 600x600mm (smaller format for intricate patterns), and Mixed Patio Packs combining multiple sizes for creative random-laid designs. We also offer cobbles and setts in 100x100mm riven square setts (900 pieces per pack, covers 9m²) and 100x200mm riven block setts (450 pieces per pack, covers 9m²). All slabs are 22mm calibrated thickness (±2mm tolerance) with sawn edges for clean lines or hand-cut for traditional character. Finish options include honed, riven, or tumbled. Mixed Patio Packs typically cover 15-18m², and custom sizes can be arranged based on specific project requirements.
Does Tandur Yellow Limestone require sealing?
While not absolutely mandatory, we strongly recommend sealing Tandur Yellow Limestone. Sealing provides stain protection preventing absorption of spills and organic matter, enhances appearance by deepening the warm yellow tones, makes cleaning easier, provides additional weather protection, extends longevity, and preserves color. Apply high-quality natural stone sealer after installation once fully dry (allow 24-48 hours), then re-seal every 2-3 years depending on traffic and exposure. High-traffic areas may benefit from annual sealing. Use breathable, penetrating sealers designed for natural stone with matt or satin finish to maintain natural appearance. Without sealing, the limestone is still durable but may experience more visible staining and require more intensive cleaning. Sealing after installation maximizes your investment and ensures stunning appearance for decades.
Is Tandur Limestone suitable for both indoor and outdoor use?
Absolutely! Tandur Yellow Limestone is wonderfully versatile for both applications. Outdoors, it's perfect for patios and garden spaces, pathways, driveways (with proper sub-base), pool surrounds, courtyards, steps and terraces, garden edging, and outdoor kitchens. Indoors, it works beautifully for kitchen flooring, bathroom floors and walls, hallways and entrances, living areas, conservatories, feature walls, and fireplace surrounds. The warm yellow tones complement any design style, it's durable enough for high-traffic areas, provides natural slip resistance, is easy to maintain, brightens spaces naturally, suits underfloor heating systems, and ages beautifully. Using the same material indoors and out creates seamless design flow throughout your property.
How should I maintain Tandur Yellow Limestone to ensure its longevity?
After installation, allow 48 hours curing time and apply high-quality natural stone sealer. For regular maintenance, sweep or vacuum daily or weekly to remove dirt, rinse outdoor paving monthly with a garden hose, and clean quarterly with pH-neutral stone cleaner and soft brush. Address spills immediately by blotting (not rubbing), use mild alkaline cleaner for organic stains and stone-safe degreaser for oil or grease. Re-seal surface every 2-3 years, inspect joints annually and repair if needed, and arrange professional deep clean for heavy traffic areas as needed. Always use pH-neutral or stone-specific cleaners, sweep regularly to prevent abrasive dirt buildup, ensure good drainage, and trim overhanging plants. Avoid acidic cleaners, wire brushes, bleach, and high-pressure washing. The limestone is naturally frost-resistant when properly sealed. With straightforward maintenance, your Tandur Yellow Limestone will maintain its beautiful warm tones for 30-50+ years.
