Sandstone Capping Supplies
At Gosford Quarries MelbournE
Regarded as a product to ‘finish’ or ‘complete’ a design incorporating sandstone products, Sandstone Capping is used as a formal top surface of sandstone walls. In industry and within architectural circles, this is known as the ‘formal dressing’ of sandstone walls. Capping amalgamates a sandstone walling design with a rounded, cohesive visual appeal.
Different types of Sandstone Wall Capping and Pier Capping can add a grandiose, powerful statement to sandstone columns and piers that impress and wow those arriving at your residence or commercial property.
“If you have a particular style or aesthetic look you wish to achieve call our
Sandstone Experts today on (03) 9558 2883 to discuss custom-cut dimensions,
colours and finishes for your sandstone block and log requirements.”
Why Use Sandstone Capping?
Sandstone Capping can be used to execute a more traditional or ‘heritage’ design of sandstone walling, sandstone iers, or sandstone columns. It can also be used to execute a more contemporary, modern look to a design. The specification of sandstone capping determines the look, aesthetic, and function of the design.
Sandstone Capping also has a more crucial, functional purpose. It protects sandstone walls, piers, and columns from exposure to rain, like a natural rock umbrella. The sheer weight of sandstone capping also improves structural integrity, especially in external applications where sandstone walling structures are involved.
When installed by a trained and qualified installer such as a stonemason, capping becomes another structural element ensuring that your sandstone walls, sandstone piers or sandstone columns can withstand the tests of time.

Raw Sandstone Slabs – Large Sandstone Sheets
Raw sandstone slabs and large sandstone sheets are usually purchased to produce customised capping, curbed capping, specific width capping, different format stepping stones or break them up to form crazy paving. Some people make pier-capping on top columns or piers. People can use these sandstone slabs as paving or steps. This is a multi-functional sandstone product; something to make to a bespoke size. These products require a stonemason or a landscaping installer.
A full-size sheet can weigh up to 250 kgs.
Sandstone installers will purchase to make their own bespoke products. Hence these products will usually be specified by the sandstone installer. ‘I can just make this out of a slab or a sheet of sandstone’, they will say. Buying these sandstone slabs or sheets is like buying a piece of plywood from Bunnings and cutting and shaping it to what you need.
