Flagstone for sale by the ton or the pallet
Every color above is for sale by the ton or by the pallet, with samples available if you are still choosing. Pick a size and cut on any product page and it shows the current cost per ton for that exact stone.
Thickness is what moves your tonnage most. Thinner patio-gauge stone is lighter per square foot, so a ton covers more area. Thicker standup stone weighs more per square foot and covers less. That is why two patios of identical size can need noticeably different tonnage, and why comparing cost per ton between gauges can mislead.
How much flagstone do I need?
Measure length times width for square footage. As a planning figure, one ton of patio flagstone covers roughly 80 to 120 square feet, with thin stone at the high end and thick standup stone at the low end. Add about 10 percent for cuts and breakage, since flagstone gets trimmed to fit and the odd piece breaks. Run your dimensions through the coverage calculator, or read how much flagstone do I need.
Do not forget the layers underneath. A dry-laid patio needs about 4 inches of compacted base gravel and 1 inch of bedding sand before the stone goes down. See how to build a flagstone patio, compare flagstone vs pavers, or shop steppers for a stepping path. For pallet quantities and freight, request a quote.
Flagstone stepping stones
Any flagstone above can be laid as flagstone stepping stones across a lawn or through a gravel bed. In a stepping path each piece carries weight on its own, without neighbors to support it, so choose thicker patio stone and set every piece on a compacted base so it does not rock. For stone already sized for a stepping path, shop steppers.
What kind of rock is flagstone?
Flagstone rock is any stone that splits into flat slabs. The flagstones for sale here are mostly sandstone, with quartzite as the second largest group and a few slates and limestones. Sandstone gives the warm Arizona tans, reds and golds; quartzite is harder and carries a visible sparkle. Every color is sold by the ton or the pallet.
