Sandstone Wall Capping

Sandstone capping is used to ‘finish’ sandstone walls so they have a formal top surface. Capping is often called the ‘dressing’ of a sandstone wall, as it makes the wall look complete

Capping also serves an important function. It protects your sandstone wall from rain exposure by preventing water from entering the joins of the wall – basically acting like a natural rock umbrella!

Different types of sandstone wall capping, including pier capping, can add a grandiose, powerful statement to sandstone columns and piers

Our Range of Sandstone Capping Options

At Gosford Quarries, we offer sandstone capping in a variety of styles.

Our sandstone capping options include:

  • Rockfaced
  • Hydrasplit
  • Bullnosed
  • Pencil-rounded

We also offer bespoke options, such as including pyramid capping, profiled, and other custom-edge capping stones.

What Is Sandstone Pier Capping?

Sandstone pier capping refers to sandstone that tops fence posts, columns, and pillars. Like wall capping, pier capping provides both weather protection and visual appeal. Without sandstone pier capping, these structures and applications can look ‘unfinished’.

Popular edge finishes applied to sandstone pier capping include:

  • Rock-Faced
  • Diamond-Sawn
  • Bullnosed
  • Bevelled (Chamfer)

All Gosford Quarries sandstone capping and pier capping is 100% customisable in size and texture.

Sandstone Pyramid Caps For Sandstone Pier Capping

Pyramid-style pier capping popular in grand designs and heritage projects. As the name suggests, sandstone pyramid caps are cut to a pyramid shape in custom dimensions to mount atop sandstone posts and columns. These can be supplied in rockfaced or diamond-sawn finishes.

Sandstone Pool Coping and Swimming Pool Surrounds for Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane

Sandstone pool surrounds are an excellent way to incorporate natural beauty and texture into any landscape. As pools come in all shapes and sizes, our sandstone pool coping is available in custom dimensions to fit even the most intricate pool designs.

The Advantages of Choosing Sandstone for Swimming Pools

Sandstone pool coping is a functional, decorative border that helps to separate the water from the surrounding deck. In addition to being visually appealing, sandstone pool coping also offers a number of other advantages, including:

• Durability: Using sandstone ensures a stunning pool design that lasts for years to come.

• Natural Slip-Resistance: Sandstone’s porous structure absorbs moisture, reducing how slippery it gets when wet.

• Thermal Resistance: A perfect fit for the Australian climate, Australian sandstone can withstand heat exposure.

At Gosford Quarries, we supply sandstone in an array of colours, including brown, pink, white, and unbanded and neutral tones. This variety guarantees you’ll find the perfect sandstone shade to suit the aesthetic you’re after.
