Bluestone Patios Chicago

Bluestone Patio Installers Chicago

Bluestone pavers are popular for many landscaping projects, including patios in Chicago. Bluestone is a type of sandstone that can come in various colors, most notably a deep, rich blue that can add a unique aesthetic touch to any outdoor space.

Our patio builders specialize at installing bluestone patios throughout Chicago with custom design options for patios, pools and garden areas.

Here are some reasons why bluestone pavers make a great choice for patio flagstones:

Aesthetics: Bluestone's natural color variations offer a distinct and appealing look. They can range from a deep blue to a silvery hue and sometimes even include hints of greens, purples, oranges. Their unique look can enhance the aesthetics of any landscape design.

We lay all our Bluestone flagstones on a wet concrete bed, approx. 1 inch thick to ensure a solid base for the flagstones. Grouting is done with a resin grout or a colored concrete joint, depending on your preferences.

• Durability: Bluestone is known for its strength and durability. It can withstand various weather conditions, making it an excellent choice for outdoor applications.
• Versatility: Bluestone can be cut into various shapes and sizes, allowing for numerous design possibilities. Bluestone can accommodate you whether you prefer a natural, irregular look or a more uniform, geometric design.
• Slip Resistance: Bluestone offers a slip-resistant surface when left in a natural, cleft finish. This makes it an ideal choice for patios, where safety is a concern, especially around pools or other water features.
• Maintenance: Bluestone requires relatively low maintenance. It can be easily cleaned with a garden hose or power washer, and if a paver ever gets damaged, it can be replaced without disturbing the rest of the patio.
• Longevity: A bluestone patio can last several decades when properly installed and maintained. It is a solid investment for those looking to improve their outdoor space.
• Heat Retention: Bluestone absorbs heat but does not become uncomfortably hot. This quality makes it an excellent choice for patios and other outdoor areas with a lot of sun.

While bluestone does come with many benefits, it's worth noting that it can also be more expensive than other paving options. However, considering its durability, beauty, and versatility, many homeowners consider the cost a worthy investment for a lasting and beautiful patio.
