Outdoor/Indoor Washed Stone Curved Stair Steps, Landscape Natural Washed Stone Wall Contractor

Water-washed stone is a construction technique that has become increasingly popular in recent years. Its essence is quite similar to the water-washed stone technique of the 1960s. While the difficulty in wall construction is greater, quality is more easily guaranteed. Ground construction is not too challenging, but it is prone to cracking and localized settling. Therefore, the foundation design and construction must ensure the stability of the subsoil. It is necessary to use reinforced concrete foundation slabs. Additionally, it is generally recommended to set them at intervals of 5 to 6 meters.Settlement joint。

3. After all the pebbles are coated and patched, large-area construction can proceed.RollerFlatten and compact

The color powder added to the cement is a UV-resistant powder to prevent the color of the stone pavement from fading after a long time due to water washing.

The outdoor temperature during construction should be above 5 degrees Celsius to prevent hollowing and peeling.
