Flagstone patios and paths, cut and fitted by hand

Flagstone has a look pavers can't copy — every piece is different. We cut each stone on site so the gaps stay tight and even, which makes it comfortable to walk on and easy to sweep.

We build flagstone patios, terraces, paths and stepping stones, often with boulder edges, seat walls or a fire pit.

Round fire pit on a flagstone patio

Round fire pit on a flagstone patio — one of our own jobs.

Is this right for you?

A good fit if…

  • You want a natural, garden look rather than a uniform one.
  • You want a path or stepping stones through lawn or rock.
  • Your patio is bordered by boulders, beds or a water feature.

How we do it

Step by step.

  1. 1

    Dig out and build the base

    Like any patio, flagstone needs a compacted base under it so it doesn't rock or sink.

  2. 2

    Lay out the stone

    Pieces are dry-fit first so the big stones land where they look best and you don't end up with a field of slivers.

  3. 3

    Cut each piece to fit

    Edges are cut on site so the joints stay tight and consistent.

  4. 4

    Fill the joints and finish the edges

    Joints are filled and edges are finished with boulders, river rock, seat walls or lawn.

Utah weather & soil

Natural stone in a freeze-thaw climate

Utah's winters freeze and thaw the ground over and over. Flagstone on a well-drained, compacted base moves with that cycle instead of cracking, the way a large poured slab can.

Stone also stays good-looking in strong high-altitude sun, which fades many manufactured surfaces over the years.

What it costs

What moves the price.

We don’t give prices over the phone, because a number for a yard we haven’t seen is a guess. Jason walks it with you and you get a written estimate — free, with no obligation.

  • Square footage
  • Stone type and thickness
  • How tight the joints are (more cutting takes more time)
  • Edges: boulders, walls or steps
  • Access for moving heavy stone

    “They truly made my dreams a reality.”

    I cannot say enough great things about MP Lawn! They truly made my dreams a reality. From start to finish, Jason was incredibly detail-oriented and consistently went the extra mile to ensure everything was done perfectly. He made sure I was happy with my yard every step of the way, which gave me so much confidence throughout the entire process.

Questions

What people ask us.

Is flagstone more expensive than pavers?

Usually, yes — mainly because every piece is cut and fitted by hand. Many people use flagstone for a path or a smaller patio and pavers for larger areas.

Can flagstone go around a fire pit?

Yes. Several of our flagstone patios are built around round fire pits — see the photos on this page.

We work across Riverton, Herriman, South Jordan, Draper, Bluffdale, West Jordan and the rest of the Salt Lake Valley. Something else on your mind? Call 801-608-7207.
