The Different Types of Exterior Stone Pavers

Stone pavers are amazing because they can be used for just about anything. From driveways to walkways to stone accent siding, your exterior space can get a major upgrade from stone pavers. We carry four different types of pavers in our shop from which you can choose. We are going to talk about the stone pavers below so you learn more about them. It’s also a good idea to come into our shop to look at the pavers. This will stimulate your imagination and provide you with inspiration.

Flagstone Pavers

One of the most common stone pavers is flagstone pavers. The pavers are created from natural flagstone, so they come in different shapes and sizes. These pavers are large, so they work well for patios or other sitting surfaces. In fact, you can get flagstone pavers that are the size of boogie boards if you are looking for something that large. Another nice thing about flagstone pavers is that they come in different veneer types. You can choose thin, thick, or medium depending on your preference.

Fieldstone Pavers

A common paver used for home siding is fieldstone pavers. These pavers are collected in fields where the stones are naturally found. The nice thing about fieldstone pavers is that they can be cut, so they work very well as siding. The pavers can be split or cut to fit into the corners of your home’s exterior, giving the house a beautiful aesthetic. Like flagstone pavers, these pavers have a natural circular shape that complements any home. The imperfection and natural look give the home a rustic look.

Cultured Pavers

If you are looking for something that is not as heavy as natural stone pavers, cultured stone pavers are perfect for your project. These pavers are manmade to be lightweight yet they look like real stone. Cultured stone pavers come in different shapes, sizes, and colors to fit with any exterior plan. The best use for these pavers is as siding on the home. They can also be used to cover columns on the front porch or to pave the chimney. Cover half of the exterior walls or all of them for a Medieval look.

Thin Veneer Pavers

Finally, thin veneer pavers made from natural stone can make it look as if the exterior of your home is covered in bricks. The nice thing about these pavers is that they come in lighter shades to lighten up a dab exterior. The veneer pavers are cut like bricks, so they can be used for siding, walkways, patios, or just about any other exterior use. Another advantage to these stone pavers is that they are lightweight just like the cultured stone pavers, so they are very easy to work with on your project.
