Arizona sandstone is a very popular flagstone with a wide range of colors, and Rosa is its soft pink member. The color runs from light to medium pink and warms up nicely in afternoon sun. It is a medium hardness stone and very porous. Rosa is one of two Arizona colors, with Buckskin, that Mid Valley Rock carries in a tumbled form as well as standard flagstone.
Forms we carry
Cuts of Arizona sandstone
The yard stocks Arizona sandstone in Patio 2 in, Select 1 in, 1 3/4 in and Thin Select 1 1/4 in minus. Patio Tumbled and Ledge Stone cuts are available in some colors, and boulders are carried too.
Thinner cuts are hard-set with mortar over concrete. Thicker pieces can be soft-set on sand and DG. Our thickness guide explains the difference.
Tumbled Rosa for pools and edges
Tumbled Rosa has rounded, smoothed edges from a machine tumbler. That makes it comfortable for pool coping, step edges and wall caps.
When available from the quarry, specialty colors include Black Cherry, Blush, Grand Canyon, Peach, Sedona Red, Sunburst, Wild Orchid and Windrose. Ask which are in the yard.
Caring for a porous stone
Because sandstone is porous, many owners seal it. Wash the stone, let it dry 5 to 10 days with sprinklers off, and apply sealer early in the morning. See sealing flagstone.
Stone is sold by weight, and quotes are by phone or at the yard. Quarries can lose access in heavy rain, so plan big orders early.

Arizona Sandstone Rosa questions
Still unsure? Call the yard at (916) 363-4239. We are happy to talk it through.
Is Arizona Sandstone Rosa good for pool decks?
Yes. The tumbled form is popular for pool coping because the edges are smooth. As a porous stone, it benefits from sealing.
What thickness should I buy?
For a soft set on sand and DG, choose the thicker Patio 2 in pieces. For a hard set over concrete, Thin Select (1 1/4 in or less) works well.
Is Rosa always in stock?
Quarry access changes with the weather, so call to check what is in the yard today.
