With pool season just around the corner, now is the ideal time to finalize your hardscaping plans. Whether you are performing a minor repair or starting a complete backyard renovation, high-quality Pennsylvania Bluestone provides a timeless, slip-resistant finish for any pool or spa.

At Robinson Flagstone, we provide flexible solutions for every project. We can supply you with a single replacement piece, or an entire pool or spa’s worth of coping, there is no minimum to purchase.

Selecting the Right Edge Treatment

The profile of your pool’s edge—known as the coping—defines the aesthetic and comfort of your swimming area. While many homeowners are familiar with the classic Full Bullnose (completely rounded), our Half Bullnose (¾” radius) is one of our most popular requests.

• The Half Bullnose Advantage: This detail rounds over only the top portion of the edge. It offers a soft, modern look that is gentle on hands and feet but is often significantly more cost-effective than a full bullnose.
• Custom Profiles: Beyond standard rounded edges, we offer a variety of specialized edge treatments to match your design vision.

Custom Solutions for Straight Pools

A rectangular pool is a timeless choice, but “standard” coping doesn’t always fit. We specialize in custom-width fabrication to ensure a perfect fit for your specific bond beam.

• Beyond the 12” Standard: We can produce coping in any width required for your project.
• Raised Pools & Spas: If your pool or spa is raised above grade with both long edges exposed, we can fabricate a matching finish on both sides.
• Creative Corners: If you prefer something other than a standard miter cut, we can design creative corner solutions to elevate the design.

Mastering Curved Pool Coping

Curved pools often present a challenge: many suppliers only offer short, 6” wide pieces that create a “choppy” look with dozens of grout joints. We expertly fabricate curved bluestone coping in longer lengths. This results in a cleaner, more seamless appearance. We use two primary methods to ensure a perfect fit:

1. Radius Points

If you have the original architectural drawings or can provide the inside and outside radius measurements, we can swing the curves of the pool with precision. This is often the most efficient method for new builds.

2. Custom Templates

For renovations or older pools where drawings are unavailable, we offer on-site templating. If your project is within 100 miles of Fort Washington, PA, our team can visit the site to create physical templates.

Once the templates are finished, we draft a custom setting sketch. Every piece of stone is numbered to match this drawing, making the installation process straightforward and efficient for your contractor.
