Round Bluestone Caps with Bullnosed Edges

December 4, 2015/in Robinson Flagstone Blogroll/by Tom Ruane

We recently fabricated some 30″ wide diameter round bluestone caps for a local customer. The rounds were used to cap piers outside of an entryway into a house.

The caps came out great, and we wanted to show some of the techniques that were used to make these.

Blue/ Gray Thermal Job in Baton Rouge, La

February 3, 2015/in Robinson Flagstone Blogroll/by Tom Ruane

Below are pictures of a recent job at a private residence that just wrapped up in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The landscape architect’s specifications called for 1″ thick thermal bluestone paving to be used for the walkways and pool deck, and 2″ thick thermal bluestone treads for the pool coping, planter caps , and steps. We provided our customer with a custom setting sketch which illustrated the location of each piece of stone to assist with the setting process. This was the first of a hand-full of jobs we supplied to in Baton Rouge.
