We are the original all Australian inventor of reconstituted sandstone cement based-polymer 30mm wall tiles & cornerstones. Est. 1988 with jobs throughout the Blue Mountains, Southern Highlands, Sydney region & all over the Eastern Coast of Australia. Based in the lower Hunter region where many homes are finished with our stonefaced tiles & cornerstones with a matching thick 60mm sill. Used for fireplaces, wall features, restaurants & of course cornerstones on buildings externally. Unfortunately sandstone is very expensive & you can’t build with original large sandstone blocks anymore. We have developed our thin wall tiles of 30mm to replace the look of sandstone to cover all types of surfaces. Most of our work today is of entire houses covered with our stonefacings over concrete blocks, bricks, AAC hebel panels, fixed to stud work using a flexible adhesive. Our quality products: lightweight, easily cut & worked like natural sandstone with colour all through. Ideal D-I-Y for owner builders, tradespeople, deal direct with the manufacturer.
