Everything for your yard between a rock and a hardscape.

The color of natural bluestone will vary. This will greatly depend on the location of the quarry and the deposits of minerals in the stone itself. The colors can vary from blue / gray, to shades of tans, rust, and lilac. J & J stocks blue select in both natural cleft face and thermal finish, as well as full color in natural cleft face only.

Please note: Bluestone is subject to weathering and discoloration. A good sealer will help prolong the effects of the elements, and keep your bluestone project looking its best for several years.

Sample Installation of Bluestone - Dry Laid

Bluestone should be installed on top of a 4" - 6" base of processed gravel or stone dust. The gravel should be compacted, then a 1" layer of stone dust or concrete sand spread over the top of the compacted materials; this is considered a bedding course. The bedding course will aid in the leveling process of the bluestone. Because natural cleft bluestone is seldom the same thickness, the 1" of bedding material will allow you a tolerance to level the slabs. Stone dust or polymeric sand should then be swept into the joints to complete the project.
