hey there,
trying to find out where i can locate and purchase a pre-made flagstone type paver. i had seen a show on one of those cable home improvment channels and i can't seem to find what they were using. the product if anyone is familiar with it is "flagstone" type flat stones with a few of them attached onto a mesh backing, so that they may be layed out in sheets, and trimmed up as needed for design and such. then they are back filled in with sand as a grout and then their good to go. if anyone is familiar if they are available to the public and where to get them i would grealty appreciate it, i live in Connecticut and having a tough time locating them. doesn't seem that the "CHAIN BOXES" carry them.
Thanks, Badnews

Home Depot ( at least in my town) carries them. If they don't have it in stock they will order it for you

There is a place in Canton, Connecticut that carries manufactured flagstone, and just about any other kind of pavers. The name is St. Pierre Box and Lumber Company. Give them a call if you don't live nearby to make sure they have what you are looking for. Also try Sanford and Hawley in Unionville.

I posted a similar question - have you had any luck - I am looking in the Nashville, TN area.
The HGTV website listed Jeff Olmstead at 925-736-7600 as a resource.

I live in Texas and the only place I have been able to find them is at Throntree Slate and Marble in Houston, Tx. You can go on the internet and click under products and then specialty items. They should come up.
