Flagstone Q and A
Q: How would I estimate the amount of Flagstone needed?
A: First decide on the thickness of the Flagstone you want to install. If you choose to Sand Set your flagstone you would use 1¾” thick stone which has an average coverage of 120 sq. ft. per ton. Now multiply width x length the area you want to cover and divide that number by 120. This equals the quantity of tons needed.
If you choose to install your Flagstone in a Cement Base use 1¼” thick stone which has an average coverage of 150 sq. ft. per ton. Now multiply width x length the area you want to cover and divide that number by 150. This equals the quantity of tons needed.
Example: Multiply 15 ft. x 15 ft. = 225 sq. ft. Divide 225 by 120 = Equals 1.88 tons of Select Regular flagstone needed.
Q: What is the cost per square foot of Flagstone?
A: The cost per square is basically the same on either Select Thin or Select Regular Flagstone in Standard colors.
