A. As a rule of thumb, approximately 6 - 7 square metres depending on what you are doing with it.

Q. What do you use for the mortar?

A. Depends on preference. To get a whitish appearance as in the photos, Hatuma agricultural lime has been used in the mix with white cement rather than the standard grey. Architects or your contractor will be able to give you suitable advice.

Q. How old is the limestone? Will there be fossils present?

A. These stones are sourced from a site that is estimated to be two million years old. Each rock has its own characteristic and some certainly have fossils easily visible.

Q. What’s the process that the rocks go through before they are used?

A. The stones are individually selected by experienced staff for their uniqueness, grain, size and colour. In fact, for every rock used, two or three are rejected. They are then split by a machine to the stones natural characteristic.

Q. What is so special about the paving stones?

A. Natural limestone from our quarry together with white cement is all that is used in making each tile – there is no artificial colouring added. This in turn helps compliment the Hatuma Stone features.
