Flagstone Pictures from Jimmie


Jimmie Davis from California e-mailed us some nice looking flagstone pictures that blended excellent with his house.

Here is the e-mail that he sent us:

This was a very long project for me, about 5 months total. I was doing all the work myself with some hired help. When it came to cutting the pattern for the stone, it was more than my back could handle. It took a while to find the right person to cut and lay the stone. I think he did great work. It turned out just like I wanted. The DVD was a great help. I tried to do it just as instructed by the DVD. It was also a big help that you answered a lot of questions by email.

Thanks for all the help.

This is the beginning. It's time to get some concrete down.

And here is the concrete. Remember that you want at least a four inch thick concrete slab.

These next two pictures shows the cut stone. The cuts came out very well and the pattern looks great.

Cutting can take a long time, but it is worth it in the end.

This is a great series of pictures to see the process to laying down flagstone or any other type of stone.

We thank Jimmie so much for sharing his experience. This will be a big help for anybody who wants to lay their own flagstone down.
