Question

Do Indian stone driveways crack under the weight of a car?

Gavin · Answer

They can if the paving hasn’t been laid properly. And the slab hasn’t got a full bed of cement

Ben · Answer

Yes it will crack you can't use Sandstone for a driveway

Jason · Answer

Not if the backs of the sandstone paving will need to be coated with a SBR coating slurry and layed on a full bed of sand and cement on top of a solid road stone base.

James · Answer

No as long as a sub base has been layed and layed correctly

Shane · Answer

Well if it’s bin layed with the right materials and layed on a cement mix it should do but I wouldn’t advise a van or truck

Nathan · Answer

Hi they don’t crack if layed correctly but my advice would not to do Indian stone for a driveway

Wayne · Answer

If Indian paving is installed on concrete dense material at least 100 to 150 mm thick and paving bonded it will not move

James · Answer

If they are done properly they will be fine, ideally laid over a concrete base and “must” be laid on a “full bed” of strong mortar mix.

Kevin · Answer

No if properly prepared sub base and formation level is dug out first and then compacted properly
