Stonecast® Reclaimed York Stone Paving
Reclaimed York Stone paving offers the charm and history of weathered York stone with the reliability of modern craftsmanship. Stonecast® Reclaimed York stone is a superior alternative, capturing the aged patina and texture of original reclaimed stone through expert replication. Using moulds taken from genuine reclaimed York stone, each Stonecast® slab mirrors the unique characteristics of the aged material, providing an authentic, time-worn appearance.
Authenticity and Quality of Reclaimed York Stone Paving
Reclaimed York stone, salvaged from historical buildings and foot-worn old streets, boasts a distinctive weathered look and rich history, adding character to any project. Each piece of reclaimed stone exhibits unique variations and natural aging, making it highly desirable for traditional and historical aesthetics. However, sourcing reclaimed York stone can be expensive and labor-intensive, with prices typically ranging from £100 to £200 per square meter. Additionally, availability can be inconsistent due to its limited supply.
