Patio question

Hi,

I am planning on laying a patio(60sqm) over the coming months. My wife does not like the current vouge for riven stone and wants a smooth finish. Our old patio was a 3/2 & 2/2 concrete slab affair so i see where she is coming from regarding pooled water dirt traps in the riven stones. We both like the look of marshalls midnight blue slate. Its a snooth finished dark blue slate in 3 sizes for a random look, had anyone used it and does it remain non slip when wet, i assume it does but better to ask first!

why not ask the maker or supplier to be sure?

I could do but manufacturers have a vested interest whereas a forum like this is a legit information exchange, just call me Mr Cynical

I have laid plenty of slate and it doesn't become unduly slippy when wet.
