Tennessee Flagstone Treads

Flagstone step treads are often used to create natural stairs, steps and pathways in residential homes, commercial buildings, gardens and landscaped areas.  Stone contractors are often forced to utilize stone that is not the correct size for the application because the ideal size is not available.   As a result, the step stones and stair treads are often in several random pieces, which detract from the overall appearance of the final product.  However, stone contractors now have an option available for one-piece Tennessee flagstone step treads, which is a beautiful natural stone product.

Available in several stock sizes including 12”x12”, 18”x18”, 24”x24”, 18”x36” and 18”x48”, these treads are all natural Tennessee flagstone.  In addition, custom sizes are available as well.  The product is being sold “quarry direct” at very low wholesale prices by the truckload, which is possible because there is no multi-tiered distribution system involved.  When an order is placed, the call goes directly to the quarry in Tennessee where the product is mined and cut to size.  The quarry takes great pride in providing world-class customer service, which is possible due to direct distribution and the dedicated stone professionals that manage the entire process from the time the stone is mined until the wholesale customer receives their order.

As every stone contractor knows, customers prefer real stone products over synthetic stone, provided they can afford the real stone.  Now real stone flagstone treads will be within the reach of more consumers than ever before because of the low wholesale pricing that is now available to stone contractors.  This savings benefits the end consumer as well as the stone contractor, creating a “win-win” for everyone involved!
