From our experience as the leading Portland stone supplier worldwide, the following advice will help you when selecting Portland dimension limestone:

Generally the higher the shell content - the more durable the stone will be. Therefore if you're selecting a stone to be used in exposed situations, we advise a shelly stone.

We experience a greater degree of waste when cutting large dimension stones. Therefore large stones will attract a premium rate. The most cost effective way to purchase is for the average stone size to be around 900mm long by 450mm high.

When purchasing paving try to plan for set widths, with random lengths ie 500mm set width with a random length would normally result in a 10% cost reduction. This will ensure you get the best quantity to cost ratio.
