Sve što trebate znati o Flagstone-Flagstone

So what actually is flagstone? Is it a pattern or a stone?

What are the options for pattern with flagstone?

We commonly install a variety of patterns with flagstone. One of the most commonly requested that should be addressed is the irregular, puzzle-style pattern. Many homeowners or inexperienced landscapers lay their flagstone with large gaps between the stone. Unless the homeowner desires plantings or grass or some sort of stone between the flagstone pieces, this is not how flagstone is supposed to be laid. We try to keep our gaps between stone to around an inch. This gives a much more pleasant look as mortar does not need to be used between the stones and furniture can be used on the patio or walkway much more easily.

Using Irregular Flagstone in Your Landscape

Flagstone, or natural stone, is an excellent option for any landscape. It is versatile in its use and shape. It can be cut into rectangular shapes that all the same size or into irregular pieces. Natural stones tend to also have a rougher texture so it is safer to walk on when wet. We love that natural stone provides a huge variety of color choices and is extremely durable. Remember natural stones are found in nature…they are used to standing up to the weather elements.

It is extremely important that you select a landscape contractor that has experience with installing irregular flagstone as it really is an art. Flagstone that is installed improperly will become not only an eyesore, but a safety hazard. Though it can be pricey and difficult to install, in our opinion, nothing beats the beauty of natural stone!
