York Stone Paving is a Sandstone that requires regular maintenance to preserve its appearance and longevity. Therefore, to keep sandstone looking its best, it should be routinely cleaned with a soft broom and washing with mild, pH neutral detergents to avoid damaging its porous surface. Sealing the sandstone periodically helps protect it from moisture absorption, stains and weathering, especially in outdoor settings. It is also important to promptly remove organic debris like leaves and moss, as they can trap moisture and cause discolouration or erosion over time. Avoid using harsh chemicals or high pressure washers, as they can weaken the stone’s structure. In short, with proper care, sandstone can retain its natural charm and strength for many years.
