The material that binds flagstone is usually composed of silica, calcite, or iron oxide. The rock color usually comes from these cementing materials.

  • How to Install Dry-Laid Flagstone Complete Step by Step “How-To
    How To Install Dry-Laid Flagstone Patio or Walkway Complete step by step “How-to” guide for building a dry-laid patio or walkway. Copyright © 2012 Stone Plus, Inc. How To Build A Dry Laid Flagstone Patio or Walkway As there is no single “right way” to install dry laid flagstone, we have found the following to be a solid tech- nique. Choosing Your Stone Stone for walkways and patios come in many colors, shapes, textures and sizes. When selecting the stone for your pavement, keep in mind the concept, or idea, that form fits function. When laying a dry laid patio, one should use a thicker stone that is 3/4” to 2-1/2” thick. Any thinner stone will be subject to cracking. Thinner stones are used when installing stone over an existing concrete slab. Pictured to the right is the Arizona Buff Patio flagstone. As you can see, this stone has irregular edges and may need fitting in order to get the look you desire. Pictured above: Buff Patio When installing a primary walkway or patio that has high traffic or is an entertainment area, thought should be given to selecting larger and flatter flagstone. Women in high heels, or the leg of a table and chair, find larger, flatter stones more compatible with their needs. When installing a “garden path or retreat”, the use of smaller, more irregular stone is appropriate. So when choosing a flagstone for your pavement, one should consider the purpose of the pavement. Consider the texture and size of the stone in relation to its intended pur- pose.
