FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
-
The E.P. Jansen stone yard carries bluestone, flagstone, granite, wall stone, stepping stones, and veneer sourced for Hudson Valley projects. Bluestone shows up most often for patios, walkways, and pool decking because its natural cleft surface holds traction when wet. Granite and veneer tend to go toward steps, caps, pillars, and outdoor kitchen surfaces. Because material is stocked on site rather than ordered in from a catalog, you can check thickness, color range, and cleft before committing to a pallet.
-
Bluestone is a specific type of flagstone, so the two terms overlap more than most buyers expect. Flagstone describes any flat sedimentary stone split into paving pieces, while bluestone refers to the blue-gray sandstone that dominates Hudson Valley patios. Bluestone is sold both as irregular pieces and as sawn-and-thermaled rectangles with squared edges. The irregular product takes longer to fit and set, while sawn pieces install faster and read more formal.
-
Natural stone handles freeze-thaw cycles well when it is set on a properly drained base, which is the part that usually fails rather than the stone itself. Bluestone and granite are dense enough to resist absorbing water and cracking through a Northeast winter. The base matters more than the surface, which is why E.P. Jansen stocks crushed and washed aggregate alongside the stone that sits on top. Staff can spec both together so the two match the application.
