Castile Stone Step
Castile limestone, both in its heavy tumbled finish and soft tumbled finish, has been one of most popular flagstone floors since its arrival in 2007. No doubt due to its English vernacular exemplified by its south-western limestone colour, Castile in always in demand. We added a 3cm (30mm) thick external version a few years later and this has proven extremely popular with those wanting to create that indoor to outdoor flow and also with landscapers who need an English looking stone without the durability issues and the hefty price tag! To compliment all our Castile flagstone finishes and sizes we also produce this Castile Stone Step tread. Each step is 100cm (1000mm) wide, 35cm (350mm) deep & 5cm (50mm) thick. The front edge is finished with a hand-honed bullnose profile whilst the sides and rear are sawn. Our Castile Stone Step treads works with all our Castile floors, from the original Heavy Tumbled finish flag, through the numerous Soft Tumbled finishes to the dedicated 3cm (30mm) thick external format.
INDOOR STEP: Each step is 100cm (1000mm) wide, 45cm (450mm) deep & come in 3 different thickness options: 4cm (40mm), 3cm (30mm) and 2cm (20mm). The front edge is finished with a hand-honed bullnose profile whilst the sides and rear are sawn. The surface of each step is a light brushed finish identical to that of the soft tumbled internal flagstone format. Links to all these products are at the bottom of the page.
OUTDOOR STEP: Each step is 100cm (1000mm) wide, 35cm (350mm) deep & 5cm (50mm) thick. The front edge is finished with a hand-honed bullnose profile whilst the sides and rear are sawn. The surface of each step is a high-grip finish identical to that of the external flagstone format and works with all internal formats too if you desire a thicker, gripier step than our indoor version.
