What is Basalt, and What is it Best For

Basalt is a dark-coloured, fine-grained igneous rock famed for its durability and density. It originates from the rapid cooling of magma beneath the Earth’s surface.

Given its robustness and aesthetic appeal, basalt is an excellent choice for various construction and decorative applications. It’s particularly well-suited for tiling, creating an elegant, hard-wearing surface that can endure heavy foot traffic. This composite brings natural beauty to any space, whether for residential or commercial use.

Basalt can be used in driveways and pathways. Its extreme durability makes it ideal for any outdoor space, especially where foot traffic is frequent. Due to its dark colour, basalt easily complements other landscaping elements like plants and trees. We recommend keeping to one type of basalt tile for the entire driveway or pathway, as this will create a unified and elegant look. We can help you select the perfect tiles for the job, ensuring a clean and beautiful finish that will stand the test of time.

FAQs

Tiling is a significant investment, and making the right choices is critical. To help narrow your choices, we’ve answered some of the most common questions about tiling services.

Area of installation: The size of the area is a significant factor, as the larger the area, the more materials and labour will cost.

Selection of tile: Each tile has a different cost of installation, but when there are patterns involved with the tiles selected (e.g., subway tiles-brick bond, Travertine-French pattern), the cost of installation may be higher.

Waterproofing: This is an extremely important stage (when required), especially in bathrooms or wet areas. Cost factors vary depending on the size of the wet areas, how many internal and external corners there are, amount of taps, shower heads or pipes.

Sand and cement bed screed: The cost depends on the floor’s substrate; different substrates might use different materials inside or under the sand and cement bed. The thickness of the screed plays a factor as well; the thicker the screed, the more material is used to add up the cost, and the thinner the screed will decrease the cost.

Grout and Silicone selection: Various types of grouts and silicone can be used, but each tile or stone has its compatible grout or silicone, e.g., epoxy grout is roughly 4-5 times more expensive than regular grout as epoxy grout is stain resistant, non-porous and highly durable and the installation would increase the cost as the process takes considerably more precautions and finesse.

Access to the site: This can impact the labour side if access is a bit tricky, causing the job to take longer than possible

Sydney’s climate is quite diverse, with hot summers and mild winters. The types of tiles that work best under these conditions are often those that can withstand extreme temperatures and are resistant to humidity. At Symmetrical Tiling, we recommend porcelain, vitrified tiles, and engineered and natural stones. However, with proper sealing, any type of tile can resist moisture.
