Tile adhesive over properly prepared substrate. Mechanical fixing may be required in certain circumstances. Please refer to the PGH Stone Cladding Installations. Recommendations document available on the Stone resources page.

It is not required to seal our Stone. A sealer will provide added protection and will usually be easier to clean if the surface becomes dirty. If you choose to use a sealer for added protection, use a penetrating breathable masonry sealer. NOTE: A sealer may affect the stone colour and may create a gloss or matte finish. Always test a small area beforehand.

PGH Stone can be applied to any structurally sound surface with the proper preparation. It fits nearly any building plan — large or small, interior, or exterior, new residential or commercial projects — or on any remodel.

Our hand-crafted products are made with reconstituted sandstone utilising naturally occurring aggregates, with various advantages over natural stone; its ease of installation, prefabricated corner pieces and caps to suit all products, its availability, more economical to buy than natural stone, colour can be altered to suit personal taste.

PGH Stone is cast from moulds created using actual stone pieces, PGH Stone displays the same textures, colours and patterns found in real stone masonry.

PGH Stone products may be adhered to any prepared clean, untreated, structurally sound wall surfaces. AC/cement sheeting over timber or steel frame, Masonry and Brick, Tilt/Pre cast panel. Please refer to our installation instructions for further information.

PGH Stone can be installed around a fireplace. The veneer must be a minimum of 20cm from any open flame.

PGH Stone products will perform the same as any other quality reconstituted stone. Although, it should be taken into consideration with any reconstituted stone or natural material, continued exposure to chlorine and other chemicals may eventually affect the colouration of the products. When frequently exposed to water, we recommend protection with a non-film breathable masonry sealer. NOTE: A sealer may affect the stone colour and may create a gloss or matte finish. Always test a small area beforehand. 

The approximate weights range from 48kg to 62kg per m2 depending on the PGH Stone product selected (exclusive of installation materials). 

The loose stones are packed in corflute outdoor suitable boxes. Flats are sold in boxes ranging from 0.42 - 0.6 per m2. Corners are sold in boxes ranging from 1-1.2 L/m. Capping is sold individually. 

Yes! The products are suitable for both applications. They allow you to bring the outdoors inside as well as emphasizing your design and continuity in your colour and textures schemes.

The base colour is blended throughout, and permanent mineral oxide pigments are applied and absorbed when the veneer is cast. Colour becomes an integral part of the veneer and, like natural stone, there are minimal noticeable colour changes after years of weathering.   15-year warranty against colour fade no greater than two percent. 

The choice between mortar or grout comes down to personal preference. Either can be used. Sand and cement-based mortar can be tinted with an iron oxide pigment. This style of application can enhance or accompany the stone colour used. Tile grout can also be used to achieve the same outcome.  Please refer back to the grout manufacturer for technical assistance.

In general, installation of PGH Stone can be installed by almost anyone. However, installation does require a fundamental understanding of stone masonry. For Classic Ledgestone and Rugged Ledgestone, we highly recommend a professional installer. Please refer to our user installation guide. 

As with any building material, the beauty of the product is greatly enhanced by how well it is installed. With PGH Stone, careful consideration regarding the type of profile and colour selected, the actual installed stone "pattern" and the type of grout technique used, are all very important factors to take in consideration. It is always best to create a mock-up board with the desired aesthetic appeal prior to installation on your project. 

Yes, our products are easily cut or trimmed using a hatchet or wide-mouth nipper. We highly recommend the use of a dustless, vacuum saw. Cutting guide available on the resources page.
