Where flagstone works best
Flagstone suits areas with foot traffic. For driveways we recommend concrete or interlocking pavers, which handle car weight better.
- Garden paths and stepping-stone walks
- Patios with an informal, natural look
- Accents and borders inside a concrete paver patio
- Steps and landings on gentle slopes
How we install flagstone
We excavate, compact a crushed-rock base, and set each stone to a consistent slope so water drains away from the house. Joints are finished with sand, gravel, or plantings depending on the look you want.
Flagstone with pavers
A popular approach is a concrete paver patio with a flagstone path or seating area. The pavers give a level surface for furniture, and the flagstone adds a natural edge.
