Flagstone

Bluestone: Blue at Mid Valley Rock — **Bluestone: Blue** Colors vary by pallet and wet vs dry. See it in the yard.

If you want a cool blue surface, this is the bluestone to see. Bluestone as a whole runs from blue to lilac to green-brown to gunmetal, and the bluest pieces are the most highly prized. Choosing the blue gives a patio a cooler look than a mixed range. It looks crisp with white trim, gray siding and clipped hedges, and it suits both classic and modern homes.

Why the blue is prized

Bluestone is a sandstone quarried in the Northeast. The bluest stone is the most highly prized.

The blue color reads clean and tailored. If you prefer more variety, compare it with Full Range in the yard.

Irregular, cut and tread forms

Bluestone comes as flagstone, special cut squares and rectangles, and treads 4 and 6 feet long.

Irregular Blue gives a relaxed pattern. Cut pieces build a formal grid for terraces and entries. Treads give steps a finished edge.

Keeping the color

Bluestone darkens when wet. A matte sealer can protect the surface without changing the look much, while a gloss sealer deepens the blue.

Never seal wet stone. Wash it, let it dry five to ten days with sprinklers off, then seal in the cool morning. Because bluestone is sold by weight, call or stop by the yard for a quote.
