Weathered Step Slabs are quartzitic sandstones that occur naturally in large flat pieces, and at 4 to 6 inches thick they have the height of a comfortable step. The color is tan, a warm caramel that sits easily beside most house colors and plantings. If you are building garden steps or a landing at a door or gate, this is a stone to look at in person. ## Naturally flat and step-thick Each slab is a single large, flat piece of stone. The 4 to 6 inch thickness means one slab can form one step, with a broad top to walk on. The surface is weathered, so the slabs look settled from the day they go in. The color is tan. ## Steps and landings Use the slabs as risers up a slope, as a landing at the top or bottom of a run, or as one generous step off a patio. Our [stone steps ideas](https://midvalleyrock.com/ideas/stone-steps/) page shows how slab steps come together. Tan step slabs also tie in well with a [flagstone](https://midvalleyrock.com/stone/flagstone/) path or patio in a similar warm tone. ## Measuring and moving slabs Measure the total rise of your slope and the width of the steps you want, then bring the numbers to the yard. Staff can help you work out how many slabs the job takes. Stone is sold by weight, and large slabs are heavy.
