There are many reasons to choose Unilock Natural Stone for your natural stone project, be it to take advantage of its high quality, its beautiful natural appearance, or to support the ethical processing of imported stone. Before you decide to settle for any other brand for your patio, pool deck, walkways, or front entrance, read these key points on why Unilock Premium Quality Natural Stone is ideal for your project:

Gorgeous Shades of Sandstone and Limestone

Unilock Premium Quality Natural Stone is available in both Sandstone and Limestone varieties, each with their own unique characteristics. Limestone has a fine grain and honed texture with deep and gentle colors that serve design themes as varied as modern, traditional, and formal. The color variations available in Limestone include assorted handsome gray shades, such as the deep charcoal of Black River, cool Hearthstone, and the light silver of Winter Mist. All three shades of Limestone are ideal for creating a hardscape with a relaxed and sophisticated ambience and can be used to highlight more vibrant colors in the design, such as that of throw cushions, vegetation, or warmly colored vertical elements.

Unilock Sandstone presents a richer surface texture with a coarser grain, similar to that of sea sand. For this reason, Sandstone can be used to add a beach-like feel to poolsides and patios if chosen in a suitable sandy shade, such as that provided by Autumn Harvest. As well as this sunny option, Unilock Sandstone is available in the Indian Coast color variation. This warm color option has the potential to add a sense of comfort and coziness to any patio project. The pleasant red/brown of its surface is brought to life by natural veins of dark reds, giving it detail that is hard to overlook.

A more subtle option is presented by the Stone Cliff Grey color option, which offers a contrast of rich texture and subdued coloring that is perfect for creating elegant hardscapes with a contemporary feel.

A Variety of Shapes

Both Sandstone and Limestone slabs from Unilock are available in a variety of large format size options, allowing you to achieve the desired look for your patio, poolside, front entrance, or walkways. These sizes include a 12 x 24 inch rectangle, an 18 x 24 inch rectangle, a 24 x 24 inch square, and a 24 x 36 inch slab. These options allow for randomized and grid-like laying patterns, as well as everything in between.
