Keep your family safe using slip-resistant stone pool pavers

When planning your outdoor area safety is a priority. We use the sawn stone around pools because it's flat underfoot so you are not going to be rolling your ankle on it.

The inherent sandy texture of the volcanic rock gives your poolside stone paving a natural grip that stays highly effective even when drenched.

This helps your children and adults play safely around the water. To further protect your family the edges of your paving are hand-finished to eliminate sharp corners. You can choose from a range of profiles including smoothly rounded edges.

We can cut bullnose edges for the coping so when you are getting in and out of the pool you are not scraping your shins on a sharp edge.

By focusing on these safety details your outdoor area becomes a safer environment without needing artificial surface additives.

Walk comfortably on natural stone pool surrounds during hot summers

Stepping out of the water onto a surface that feels comfortable on bare feet makes your swimming experience much better. Because of its unique natural composition and lighter colour palette the volcanic rock reflects the heat from the sun rather than absorbing it.

It stays cool underfoot even on a hot day. You will find this heat resistant stone pool surrounds performance makes your summer living far more pleasant. Beyond physical comfort the materials give your property an elegant aesthetic.

It's a natural product so it looks timeless around a pool and it does not date like some man-made materials. Each piece features distinct visual character including subtle colour variations and delicate pumice flecks.

For pool surrounds it's always the sawn finish because it gives you that clean contemporary look and it's great to walk on while blending seamlessly with
your landscaping. You receive an environment that looks unchanged for decades.

Create your ideal shape using custom stone pool coping

Every backyard is unique which is why the flexibility for your pool paving stone layout is important. We can cut it to almost any size you like so you are not stuck with standard tile dimensions.

Our price is based on square metres not tile size so you have got real flexibility in design. If you want something more custom we can round the top edge or create curved pieces to follow the exact shape of your pool.

The custom stonework options include fully curved copings where every piece is cut to form a semicircle so it's all custom and made to fit your pool perfectly.

It's not imported because it's a genuine New Zealand product touched and handled by our own team. You receive full traceability and a precise finish made specifically for your home.

It's hardwearing and it lasts because there are pools out there 30 or 40 years old and the stone still looks the same.

Choose Kaha grade natural stone pool surrounds for saltwater environments

When you invest in your property you want materials that last. The high-density Kaha grade gives your pool surround stone a dense hard surface. We do not recommend certain grades for saltwater pools because salt can etch into them so we will guide you on the right stone so you do not have issues later.

The Kaha grade naturally resists salt etching making it hardwearing for your exposed New Zealand environments. To ensure your paving remains clean your professional installer should lay the sawn stone on a solid concrete base for maximum stability.

As long as it's laid on a solid concrete base it's good as gold for
patios and pool surrounds. You only need to follow a few basic maintenance steps, such as sealing the surface every few years with the recommended penetrating sealer.

Clean routinely using a standard garden hose and diluted bleach. Avoid harsh water blasting to protect the natural texture of your stone.

Yes they are very safe. The volcanic rock has a naturally textured surface giving you excellent grip even when wet. This makes non-slip pool coping stone an ideal choice for keeping your family secure around the water.

Natural stone gives you durability and a classic aesthetic that poured concrete cannot match. While concrete can crack or fade over time custom-cut volcanic stone withstands the New Zealand climate beautifully. You receive a unique finish that adds enduring value.

No they stay comfortable underfoot. Because the Waikato volcanic stone has excellent thermal insulation properties it regulates temperature much better than many other materials. You and your guests can comfortably walk barefoot around your swimming area.

Very little maintenance is needed for the paving. We recommend a basic wash with a hose and diluted bleach to keep your paving clean. Because the stone is naturally robust it resists damage from weather.

Yes. We cut every piece directly at the Waikato quarry to match your exact specifications. Whether you have curved edges or specific architectural requirements the materials are cut to ensure a precise fit that matches your design vision.
