TRANSFORM YOUR GARDEN WITH BRADSTONE PAVING & WALLING
Welcome to the Bradstone guide to paving and walling. We want to help you make the most of your outdoor living space, to see
it as an important asset - a valued extension of your property, a place to relax and enjoy the company of family and friends.
Bradstone began producing products for the Home and Garden over 50 years ago. During this time we have always been highly
selective in the natural stones used to create our masters and have finely honed the techniques employed.
Today, Bradstone Products are virtually indistinguishable from the natural stone on which they are based.
NEW DECK PAVING
New Deck Paving replicates traditional cedar decking, but has the
benefit of being maintenance free. The units are produced in a
basket weave pattern for added interest.
Available in Weathered Cotswold and
North Cerney Colours.
NEW DECK PAVING - SIZES: 24" X 24"
All units are approximately 1 1⁄2" thick
OLD TOWN™ SERIES
The weathered, slightly riven appearance of
the Bradstone Old Town Range lends itself perfectly
to projects where an impression of elegance
is desired.
The series is comprised of Old Town Flagstones,
Circles and Squares. All compliment each other and
combined offer the opportunity to create truly
unique gardens.
OLD TOWN™ FLAGSTONES
This traditional style garden paving bears a remarkably close
visual appearance to natural stone and it can be truly random
laid due to the availability of six different sizes.
Old Town Flagstones are available in ready made, mixed sized,
Court Sets, which fit together to produce a random
appearance. To increase the size of the patio simply increase
the number of sets.

OLD TOWN™ SQUARES
This classic design features a series of rectangular bands of paving running out from
a single central unit and radial lines that provide the quartered effect.
Although visually complex it is easy to achieve. As all the paving for the Square is
contained in a single Patio Set. To enlarge the square or create a rectangular shape,
simply add additional Old Town Square sets or Old Town Flagstone Court Sets.

OLD TOWN™ CIRCLES
Circles are a regular feature of beautiful gardens created by
leading designers and landscapers. They are an ideal means of
creating an impressive and distinctive focal point, drawing the
eye to a favored area of the garden.
Old Town Flagstone Circles have all the authentic character of
reclaimed flagstones but in a circle design. This has been made
all the easier by pre-packing all the units required for a full circle
or winding pathway.

Mountain Block
The strength of Mountain Block walling lies in it's versatility.
From the basic task of adding a retaining wall for your lawn or
raising your flower bed, to creating inspirational features,
such as a tranquil pool or a graceful flight of steps, all these
tasks can be easily achieved with Mountain Block.
Mountain Block is simple to use and you can easily create a
firm and sturdy wall without the need for mortar. Each block
is 9" deep and features a lip on it's base. This lip retains the
block and, in effect, ties the wall together.
When building up courses the lip is positioned behind the top
edge of the block on the course below, effectively preventing
it from moving forward while lateral movement is prevented
by adjacent blocks.
The blocks are ideal for retaining walls up to a height of 24"   .
Anyone can build with our Mountain Block products.
Accessories include corner, cutting and coping blocks.
The sides of the block are tapered allowing adjacent blocks to
be placed in straight runs, arcs (internal or external) & circles.
FULL BLOCK
Mountain Blocks are wedge shaped to allow different effects to be achieved. Create internal and external
curves of variable radii by adjusting the alignment of adjacent blocks. The minimum internal radius that can
be achieved is 30" and you will need to allow for the ‘set back’ when building a circle with a number of
courses. Where tight curves are required you can easily reduce the length of the lip with a club hammer.
Whether building straight or curved walls select each block carefully so that those with an exposed horizontal

false joint are followed by a full profile. Make sure you avoid setting a vertical false joint in a block above or
below a real joint between two blocks.


CUTTING BLOCK
Always ensure that when adding courses, particularly in a straight run of wall that each block straddles the
two blocks below. This may be made easier by using the cutting block to produce a half block.                        CUTTING BLOCK


CORNER BLOCK
Creating a right-angled corner is easy with the corner block. This rectangular block is faced on three sides and
you simply alternate the long and short faces of the blocks from one course to another to create the corner.

BUILDING WITH MOUNTAIN BLOCK

PREPARE THE SURFACE
When building a wall you must prepare the ground correctly. Start by removing the top soil and dig a trench that is 16" wide by 4" deep.
Firm the trench and line it with landscaping fabric to help prevent loose soil washing into the gravel back-fill.



                                                                STEP 1
                                                                Cover with a 3" layer of sand/gravel sub-base. Compact this layer to achieve a firm and
                                                                flat surface. Check your base is even with a spirit level. Place the first course of blocks in
                                                                position and align them with the front edge of the trench. Tap down using a club hammer,
                                                                and be sure that the retaining lip grips into the sand/gravel sub-base. Check that any
                                                                adjacent blocks are level and aligned correctly.




                                                                STEP 2
                                                                Back-fill the blocks with gravel and check that any ‘V’
                                                                shaped voids between the blocks are also filled and
                                                                firmed. Then, lay a perforated drainpipe to improve
                                                                drainage behind the wall, back-fill over the drainpipe to
                                                                hold it in place.




                                                                STEP 3
                                                                Having built a sturdy base, you can now add height to the wall with extra courses
                                                                staggering the joints. Make sure that you place each block across the joint of the two
                                                                blocks below and that the retaining lip always sits firmly behind the lower block.
                                                                Before starting a new course, check that the previous course is level and is
                                                                completely back-filled. Note: correct placement of the retaining lip will result in a
                                                                ‘set-back’ of 1/2" per course.




                                                                STEP 4
                                                                Once you have added the required number of courses pull forward the landscape fabric to
                                                                cover the gravel back-fill.There are two options for finishing the wall. Use a layer of Mountain
                                                                Block copings to give your wall a thoroughly professional look. Secure the coping in position
                                                                using a waterproof adhesive, taking care not to get the adhesive on the face of the blocks.
                                                                Alternatively the last course of blocks can be left exposed and plants or grass used to cover
                                                                the top of the wall giving a rustic appearance.




PLEASE NOTE
Mountain Block is intended for garden use only and should not be used to retain ground that supports drives or buildings. The maximum height limit of your wall will depend
on the individual circumstances and soil type in particular. However, if our installation guidelines are followed, Mountain Block can generally be used up to six courses high.
BRADSTONE QUALITY ASSURANCE GUARANTEE
Wintergreen Ltd. provides a Quality Assurance Guarantee for Garden Paving Products,on the
structural integrity, durability and against any defects in the material and or workmanship in the
production process. Bradstone Garden Paving will be guaranteed to the original owner.

Wintergreen Ltd. cannot accept liability where products have been used for any inappropriate
purpose. Bradstone Paving is intended for Backyard Patios and Walkways where exposure to
de-icing salts will not occur. In the unlikely event of products being delivered in a less than
satisfactory condition, please contact the dealer immediately, prior to installing.

Our Quality Assurance Guarantee is a commitment to ensure the highest quality product possible.
Bradstone will replace any of its paving and walling products that prove to be structurally defective
assuming that they have been laid in accordance to prescribed guidelines. Due to normal
production variances and the effects of weathering, colour match of the replacement product
cannot be guaranteed.

IMPORTANT
De-icing salts can be particularly damaging to the surface of concrete products. Bradstone recommends the use of a recognized safe ice thawing product. Protect your
Bradstone investment by applying an approved concrete sealer. Sealing is recommended to preserve the original beauty of your Bradstone products; this will create a barrier
to reduce the absorption of water and stains.

Stone Works Canada-Bradstone landscape brochure

  • 1. Naturally Preferred Transform your garden
  • 2. TRANSFORM YOUR GARDEN WITH BRADSTONE PAVING & WALLING Welcome to the Bradstone guide to paving and walling. We want to help you make the most of your outdoor living space, to see it as an important asset - a valued extension of your property, a place to relax and enjoy the company of family and friends. Bradstone began producing products for the Home and Garden over 50 years ago. During this time we have always been highly selective in the natural stones used to create our masters and have finely honed the techniques employed. Today, Bradstone Products are virtually indistinguishable from the natural stone on which they are based.
  • 3. NEW DECK PAVING New Deck Paving replicates traditional cedar decking, but has the benefit of being maintenance free. The units are produced in a basket weave pattern for added interest.

  • 12. Mountain Block The strength of Mountain Block walling lies in it's versatility. From the basic task of adding a retaining wall for your lawn or raising your flower bed, to creating inspirational features, such as a tranquil pool or a graceful flight of steps, all these tasks can be easily achieved with Mountain Block. Mountain Block is simple to use and you can easily create a firm and sturdy wall without the need for mortar. Each block is 9" deep and features a lip on it's base. This lip retains the block and, in effect, ties the wall together. When building up courses the lip is positioned behind the top edge of the block on the course below, effectively preventing it from moving forward while lateral movement is prevented by adjacent blocks. The blocks are ideal for retaining walls up to a height of 24" . Anyone can build with our Mountain Block products. Accessories include corner, cutting and coping blocks. The sides of the block are tapered allowing adjacent blocks to be placed in straight runs, arcs (internal or external) & circles.
  • 13. FULL BLOCK Mountain Blocks are wedge shaped to allow different effects to be achieved. Create internal and external curves of variable radii by adjusting the alignment of adjacent blocks. The minimum internal radius that can be achieved is 30" and you will need to allow for the ‘set back’ when building a circle with a number of courses. Where tight curves are required you can easily reduce the length of the lip with a club hammer. Whether building straight or curved walls select each block carefully so that those with an exposed horizontal FULL BLOCK false joint are followed by a full profile. Make sure you avoid setting a vertical false joint in a block above or below a real joint between two blocks. CUTTING BLOCK Always ensure that when adding courses, particularly in a straight run of wall that each block straddles the two blocks below. This may be made easier by using the cutting block to produce a half block. CUTTING BLOCK CORNER BLOCK Creating a right-angled corner is easy with the corner block. This rectangular block is faced on three sides and you simply alternate the long and short faces of the blocks from one course to another to create the corner.

  • 15. BUILDING WITH MOUNTAIN BLOCK PREPARE THE SURFACE When building a wall you must prepare the ground correctly. Start by removing the top soil and dig a trench that is 16" wide by 4" deep. Firm the trench and line it with landscaping fabric to help prevent loose soil washing into the gravel back-fill. STEP 1 Cover with a 3" layer of sand/gravel sub-base. Compact this layer to achieve a firm and flat surface. Check your base is even with a spirit level. Place the first course of blocks in position and align them with the front edge of the trench. Tap down using a club hammer, and be sure that the retaining lip grips into the sand/gravel sub-base. Check that any adjacent blocks are level and aligned correctly. STEP 2 Back-fill the blocks with gravel and check that any ‘V’ shaped voids between the blocks are also filled and firmed. Then, lay a perforated drainpipe to improve drainage behind the wall, back-fill over the drainpipe to hold it in place. STEP 3 Having built a sturdy base, you can now add height to the wall with extra courses staggering the joints. Make sure that you place each block across the joint of the two blocks below and that the retaining lip always sits firmly behind the lower block. Before starting a new course, check that the previous course is level and is completely back-filled. Note: correct placement of the retaining lip will result in a ‘set-back’ of 1/2" per course. STEP 4 Once you have added the required number of courses pull forward the landscape fabric to cover the gravel back-fill.There are two options for finishing the wall. Use a layer of Mountain Block copings to give your wall a thoroughly professional look. Secure the coping in position using a waterproof adhesive, taking care not to get the adhesive on the face of the blocks. Alternatively the last course of blocks can be left exposed and plants or grass used to cover the top of the wall giving a rustic appearance. PLEASE NOTE Mountain Block is intended for garden use only and should not be used to retain ground that supports drives or buildings. The maximum height limit of your wall will depend on the individual circumstances and soil type in particular. However, if our installation guidelines are followed, Mountain Block can generally be used up to six courses high.
