The delivery of the goods is very important. It is essential that customers supply us with all the relevent information regarding delivery of the paving slabs and/or stone. The most common delivery method for small orders - usually less than 50m2 - is by hired national pallet line hauliers. These hauliers deliver by tail offload, and require a hard standing area of tarmac or concrete (NOT A GRAVEL DRIVE) and access for an eighteen tonne gross, high sided wagon. If for any reason the delivery fails there could be an additional charge for a re-delivery. All relevent information such as restricted access, no parking areas, low tree branches etc must be conveyed at the time of ordering.   more »

No matter what type of paving slabs you intend to buy, it must remembered that the delivery has to be carefully planned and discussed in detail. The size of the delivery will often determine the type of vehicle used. Approximately eight square metrs of new yorkstone weighs a tonne, and if the delivery is by hydraulic tail offload, the maximum weight allowed on the pallet is one tonne. A hard standing area is required for the tail offload which has to be of concrete or tarmac NOT gravel unfortunately. If there is any requirement for a re-delivery there will be an extra re-delivery charge.   more »

Delivery by hiab offload (crane offload) is usually made when the size of the delivery is quite large - usually 50m2 or more. Of course smaller orders can be delivered as a part load but it often means waiting for the next hiab delivery.    more »

 

  Pauline, the boss, celebrated her 25 years in the stone business by bringing out a special one-off calendar.

 Since most stone yards are usually men-only, and Pauline's normal  attire at work is a jumper, trousers and wellies (with steel toe caps of course), as she spends a great deal of her time outside checking on the orders of paving slabs and stone, she thought she'd take the opportunity of celebrating her quarter of a century in the business by allowing herself the priviledge of posing in more feminine form for the photographer amongst the products she sells.

It was a very hot Sunday in August when the photographer arrived at the stone yard at Menston near Leeds.

It was so hot Pauline finished up taking off more clothes than she'd intended!!

The calendars were a huge success and sent to customers, suppliers, people in the stone trade and many othes who requested them.

She has no intention of making another one.

"It was a one-off" she insists.
