FAQ

What makes London Granite a popular tread choice?

London Granite is a deep grey granite with subtle crystalline reflections that catch the light, adding a premium, dramatic feel to entrances and staircases. Its uniform dark surface creates strong contrast against lighter surrounding materials.


Is London Granite durable enough for high-traffic stairs?

Yes. With compressive strength of 200–230 MPa and water absorption of just 0.2–0.4%, London Granite offers excellent durability and frost resistance for both residential and commercial staircases. Its density (2,750–2,850 kg/m³) supports long-term performance under repeated heavy use.


What finish provides the best slip resistance for London Granite treads?

Flamed is the recommended finish for stair treads, providing a textured surface that stays secure underfoot even when wet. Polished, honed, and bush-hammered options are also available for entryways, patios, or interior applications where requirements differ.


Is London Granite suitable for outdoor staircases?

Yes. London Granite is frost-resistant and weather-durable, making it well suited to exterior staircases, garden steps, and entryways in addition to interior applications. Its low water absorption limits the risk of cracking during freeze-thaw cycles in colder climates.


What projects is London Granite best suited for?

London Granite suits feature entrances, contemporary staircases, and premium residential or commercial projects where dramatic dark contrast and durability both matter. It's a strong choice anywhere a bold, uniform grey surface needs to perform under real foot traffic.
