Steps and Walkways
Steps and walkways are so varied in
landscape applications, yet their basic purpose remains the same. Slope, amount
of traffic and material all contribute to the variability in interesting ways.

Large interlocking flagstones are great
outdoor walk surfaces. Interlocking quarry granite can provide a smooth, durable
surface.
