Random Mortared Flagstone
This photo shows an example of a Manitoulin random mortared flagstone patio. Depending on the situation mortared flagstone is either installed on a 3-4" layer of concrete with a 1" bed of mortar between the flagstone and the concrete.
Another way of installing mortared flagstone is on a 8" layer of 3/4" clear gravel. In this case you will need to have a 4" bed of mortar between the clear gravel and the flagstone. This is only recommended if the property or site has good drainage!
There are many different options for flagstone that can be used! Some of them include Wiarton Flagstone (most common), others include India Stone and Sandstone.
