Steps & Walkways
Steps and Walkways Define the Space Around Your Home and Garden
The masonry projects featured here include a range of residential work in Fairfield County, CT and Westchester County, NY. Some projects are whimsical, large stepping stone paths. Others are more precise with geometric steps, allowing guests to navigate the property with ease. Level flagstone landings, 4 inch-thick stone steps can create gravitas and substance. On the other hand, many of our noteworthy projects are seemingly modest. They are rustic, made with natural stone and are enhanced by the natural growth of lichen and moss.
Material selection is critical when defining your garden’s tone. Texture, patterns, colors can range within bluestone flagstone, pavers, brick, hand-cut stone and Belgium block. There are a number of variations in joint selection as well. Depending on a home’s style and the owner’s objective, a walkway or path can be set with concrete, stone dust, polymeric sand or simply spaced in grass. A pathway to a cottage may look wonderful with creeping thyme, Irish moss or blue star creeper between irregular shaped stones.
