"We were looking to remodel our kitchen or bath for a few years. We kept getting estimates from different companies and always felt the price was off or the person was not a good fit. Then, finally, we met Shai with Cal Green Remodeling. What a great guy! He is very upfront and honest about what we can expect in terms of cost and work flow. Because of his honest approach, we hired him. We felt he gave us the good and bad and how to resolve the bad as well. In the end, the process was fairly smooth, and the few hick-ups we had, for example, the city and their permit process, were well explained to us at the beginning, so we were ready. Our kitchen or bath looks amazing, and I plan to work with Cal Green Remodeling again. Thanks Shai!"

Flagstone is a naturally split, sedimentary stone sold in flat, irregular slabs. Homeowners often use it for walkways, patios, pool decks, and even driveways because the coarse surface adds traction and withstands weather swings. Common varieties include sandstone, slate, and quartzite, each offering its own color palette. You can leave the pieces irregular for a rustic look or cut them into uniform shapes for a cleaner design, giving flagstone plenty of flexibility without sacrificing durability.
Regular upkeep is simple. Sweep away leaves and grit each week, pull any weeds that sprout between stones, and hose down the surface when dust builds up. For oily spills, apply an oil-absorbing product immediately to avoid stains. Re-seal the patio every three to four years with a breathable, matte sealant to guard against weather damage and keep traction high.
Flagstone usually costs more than concrete or brick pavers because it’s a quarried, natural stone that requires extra handling and transport. The higher price buys you distinctive color variations, a non-slip texture, and exceptional longevity—advantages many homeowners find worth the extra expense for high-visibility areas like patios, pool decks, and front walkways.
Sealing is the simplest way to protect flagstone from stains, freeze–thaw cycles, and daily wear. Choose a breathable, matte product that preserves the stone’s texture and keeps the surface from becoming slippery. Plan to clean the patio thoroughly, let it dry, and re-seal every three to four years—or more often around saltwater pools—to keep the color consistent and extend the stone’s life.
