Once-Weathered Coping

Once-weathered coping provides an attractive and long-lasting protective seal for parapet walls and any wall extension which requires protection from the elements. We stock a range of popular sizes in Portland and Light Cotswold and make any other size and colour to order.

Features of once-weathered coping stones

Height
The sides of once-weathered coping are different heights to form a gentle slope which allows water to flow away from the wall. Popular gradients (H1 to H2) are 90mm to 75mm, 75mm to 50mm, and 65mm to 50mm.

Width
We have many widths of once-weathered coping available, from 100mm up to 850mm. If we don’t currently stock the size you require we can make a mould for you.

Length
Our coping comes in 600mm lengths as standard. Longer sections are available on request.

Other features
Once weathered coping has a 30mm overhang, with a drip line underneath the straight sides to divert water away from the wall surface. We can mitre stones for corners, and also supply one-piece return ends.

Twice-Weathered Coping

Twice-weathered coping is a popular choice to protect and embellish any freestanding wall, such as garden boundaries and property entrances. It can also be mounted with railings and other fencing. We carry stock sizes for walls from one to four bricks wide and make all other sizes to order.
