Since bluestone is a natural and quarried product, the color is determined by the depth where the stone is quarried. The deeper it’s quarried the more unique and enhancing colors will be. |
The main advantage of using bluestone pavers is the magical effect they create wherever they are laid. They are easily installed, they come in many shapes and sizes and they are very cost effective. Their toughness and long lasting textures are also main advantages.
The Benefits of Sealing Bluestone For further protection of your Bluestone you need to use a specified sealer. Bluestone is a porous natural stone. It is able to hold large amounts of water. But over many years, it will lose its natural beauty due to the water if they are not sealed. Using a porous stone sealer will not only protect your pavers but it will enhance its natural colors. A sealer will add depth and shine. High gloss sealers can also be used to add more shine, as natural stones normally do not have a shiny surface. |

A porous sealer will also protect bluestone from:
- Damaging heavy foot traffic.
- Chlorine and salt water around pool areas.
- Dirt and grime from surrounding gardens.
- Scratches, marks, and stains.
Seek your nearest professional’s advice on which sealer is best for you.
