Flagstone Patio Installation in Jim Thorpe, PA

A custom flagstone patio is one of the best ways to upgrade your outdoor space. We design patios that complement your property’s natural layout while ensuring proper drainage and long-term stability.
Why do flagstone patios fail and how should flagstone patios be built in our climate?
- You want to go with a compacted gravel foundation. Concrete will crack, leading to extensive repairs in the future, instead of minor maintenance.
- Tight (but not too tight) joints filled with stone dust NOT polymeric sand or mortar.
- 6 to 8″ of foundation gravel, proper pitch, large stones along the perimeter, no sealing.
- All of these points and more are outlined in this how to build a flagstone article.
