Springtime porcelain
 
With the March equinox already behind us and the clocks set to go back this Sunday, spring is very much in the air, and we at PrimaPorcelain couldn't be happier! This is our favourite time of year - a time to go outside, spruce up the garden, and reacquaint yourself with the world outside your home!
 
If you're ready to come out of hibernation and embrace your outdoor space, we're here to help. Porcelain paving makes a fantastic addition to any home, and adding a porcelain patio to your garden this spring will really help it to look fresh and appealing. If you're not sure where to start, here's some inspiration from around the PrimaPorcelain website:
 
Quartz Twilight
We'll start with our Quartz porcelain paving. Doesn't its classical design work perfectly outside this conservatory?
 
Limestone Vanilla
If you're lucky enough to have a balcony to spend your evenings on this spring, our French Limestone Vanilla paving will make the perfect floor for your outdoor area. As you can see, it looks particularly good against a little bit of greenery!
 
Limestone Midnight
Finally, if you're looking for a slightly darker shade of paving, our Belgian Limestone Midnight design might be a good place to start. This slabs have a bold, contemporary look that will make your garden look brand new!
 
These three suggestions are just the tip of the iceberg. Visit PrimaPorcelain's Product Selector to see what else we have to offer - we are confident that you'll find something to suit your tastes!
Assorted PrimaPorcelain products

As you may have noticed, we've made a few changes to the PrimaPorcelain website of late. We now have a stylish new design and a huge range of new products, but perhaps the biggest change of all is the addition of the PrimaPorcelain Product Selector.

The Product Selector is a handy little tool that makes it easier than ever to find the perfect porcelain for your project. The filters allow you to specify...
  • ...where you are installing your tiles (indoors, outdoors, or both)
  • ...which colour you would like (choose from cream, beige, grey, brown and black)
  • ...the texture you are looking for (we offer polished, smooth, fine textured, or textured/grip)
Once you have ticked the boxes that apply to your project, our Product Selector will narrow our range right down, only showing you the products that fit your requirements. For example, you can ask to see polished beige tiles for an indoor space, or black paving slabs with a textured finish that's suitable for outdoor use. No matter what you need, our Product Selector will find it for you!

Of course, if you prefer, you can simply ignore the Product Selector tool and browse through our entire range. It all looks rather splendid, and we're certain that at least one of our designs will catch your eye!

Hello! We've been extremely busy of late, which is why we haven't updated the blog for a while, but rest assured that we're still transforming gardens up and down the country! Here are some pictures of our latest work:

Cowbridge School

 This is an outdoor seating area at Cowbridge Comprehensive, a secondary school in the Vale of Glamorgan. We provided two different types of porcelain paving for this space - Bluestone Midnight (the darker slabs in the centre) and Quartz (around the edge). We love this use of two contrasting colours, and the students at Cowbridge Comp now have a far more attractive place to eat, study, and meet with their friends!

 

Porcelain patio

This is a garden in London that we helped to improve with our Limestone Vanilla porcelain paving. As usual, the light and creamy tones look absolutely wonderful in the sunshine - we're particularly fond of the step (also paved with Limestone Vanilla) that joins the patio to the back door. It looks absolutely seamless!

 

Transition between indoors and outdoors

Speaking of seamless, feast your eyes on this beautiful image! This garden is located in the Worcester Park region of Surrey; the client opted for Dark Grey Granite Paving (one of the most recent additions to our collection), and we love how the new patio segues seamlessly outwards from the interior tiles. Amazing!

Balcony with Porcelain Tiles

From decking to stone paving to artificial turf, there are many different ways to floor a balcony. Still, we feel that porcelain paving is the best choice of all – our porcelain slabs are sturdy, water-resistant, and very beautiful indeed!

One customer in Berkshire certainly agreed with this point of view. They ordered 39m2 of our beautiful Limestone Champagne paving for their balcony, and the results are really rather stunning!

Here’s a ‘Before and After’ photo:

Berkshire Balcony Flooring - Before and After

What a transformation! Not so long ago, the balcony was a grimy, grubby-looking thing, with weeds poking between the paving stones and a rather tired appearance in general. But now that our porcelain products have worked their magic, the balcony is all but unrecognisable. The champagne-coloured tiles look fabulous as usual, bringing a hint of classical decadence to the customer's outdoor space, and that beautiful white balustrade looks perfect alongside them!

And it’s the perfect time for it, too – we’re right at the height of summer now, and we’re positive that the view from this client’s balcony is absolutely astounding in the Berkshire sunshine!

Glasgow Garden Steps

Do you have a set of steps in your garden? If so, we at Refin can help to make them beautiful! That’s exactly what we did for a customer in Glasgow, who ordered a set of Limestone Vanilla porcelain paving slabs for their own garden steps. Here’s a before/after photo:

Garden Steps - Before and After

As you can see, the steps are a lot more attractive now! Limestone Vanilla has a creamy texture that’s really worked wonders for this property, and as always, those slabs are almost entirely maintenance-free. The steps will stay beautiful with no work at all!

These photographs were sent to us by Botanical Landscapes, the Scottish landscaping firm that installed these stunning steps for the customer in question. Here’s what they had to say about our porcelain paving:

"Having completed the project, I can say that the 20mm porcelain paving is a very good product to work with. All passers-by asked about the materials, and most of them thought it was marble. I've recommended you to all for future projects."

Not only that - BL were so impressed by our service that they are now communicating with us regarding another project that will be carried out later this year!

That customer and installer alike are so happy with our product is a huge thrill for us, and we think those new garden steps look absolutely gorgeous.
