How to choose the best Porcelain Paving for you
Now that you have spent some time looking at the 5 best porcelain paving brands for 2023, you will need to make a decision on the best porcelain paving product for your paving project. Below are the main things to consider when comparing porcelain paving brands against each other.
Porcelain Paving Price
Porcelain paving can vary quite dramatically in price. You must make sure when you are comparing pricing between different brands that you are looking at the same product. It is essential that your outdoor porcelain tile is 2cm thick or more – bear this in mind as thinner indoor tiles can be much cheaper, meaning a direct comparison will not be possible.
When getting an idea on price, you will need to consider the size of your paving project. Try to work out the rough SQM of the area, as this will really help to quantify and budget your project. Most websites will have a calculator which will help you to work out the quantity of tiles requires. OVAEDA’s specialists will be very happy to help you out with this via email or telephone.
When considering the pricing for your porcelain paving area, don’t forget that as well as the tiles, you’ll have to remember to include adequate support, whether that is in the way of a raised support system, or more traditional mortar based bad. If you take the costs per sqm estimates provided earlier in this article and multiply by the size of your proposed paving area, you will get a good steer on what it will cost, which will help if your decision is going to be largely budget-based.
If you have a budget that you do not want to surpass, we’d recommend taking this budget, and working out the amount of sqm of material and labour that you can fit within this and taking your porcelain paving project forward that way.
Paving Durability
Porcelain Paving in general is a very durable product. Choosing Porcelain paving for your outdoor area over natural stone is a sure-fire way of ensuring it stands the test of time. As this article is about the best porcelain paving brands, there is not much differentiation in the durability of the products.
Aesthetic Appeal
Porcelain Paving is available in many different finishes, sizes, and colours, so the aesthetics do vary quite a lot. We strongly advise ordering samples to have a look at before placing an actual order for the porcelain, so that you can compare different options, and see how they match in with the surrounding area.
