Need advice on flagstone steps

Posted by lisah 4 (My Page) on

At my house in New Hampshire, I have a set of concrete steps that are currently topped with bluestone. The grout has all given way and the bluestone needs to be replaced. The steps are flanked by rustic stone walls, and I would like to replace the bluestone with something that matches better. What other stone product can I use that will (a) require as few seams as possible and (b) meet the thickness requirement of 3/4 inch?

Also, it's a little off topic, but as long as I'm replacing the bluestone I'd like to replace the wrought iron railing, too. Any suggestions as to what would look good?

Below is a link to a picture. Thanks for any advice!

Look at dimensional quartzite or Tennessee cobblestones.
