About Colors

Autumn Brown
A dense sandstone with warm brown tones and a natural cleft surface. Autumn Brown offers durability and timeless appeal for patios, steps, and outdoor living areas.

Blue Ice
A highly durable stone with cool blue-gray tones and a gentle natural cleft texture. Similar in appearance to Pennsylvania Bluestone, it is well-suited for steps, patios, and poolside applications.

Blue Mist
A very dense blue-gray granite stocked in a full range of sizes and styles. Blue Mist provides exceptional strength and freeze-thaw resistance for long-lasting installations.

Imported Gray Granite
An economical granite option offering a consistent neutral gray appearance. It shares similar durability and workability with other granite selections.

Italian Bluestone
Quarried in central Italy, this strong sandstone contains no iron, ensuring the blue color remains stable without rusting or browning over time. A thermal finish enhances surface texture and slip resistance.

Oxford Buff Sandstone
Featuring subtle movement with gray, beige, and tan tones, Oxford Buff adds warmth and natural variation to landscape stair installations.

Phoenician Granite
A dense, decorative granite known for its rich tonal variation and durability. Phoenician Granite provides strength and architectural character for statement step applications.

Premium Dark Bluestone
Deep blue-gray tones and a refined, consistent texture define Premium Dark Bluestone. It is a popular choice for high-end landscape and architectural stair projects.

Sandy Point Granite
A decorative yellow granite with brown streaks and black flecks. Sandblasted for a uniform texture, it remains relatively cool underfoot and performs well in sun-exposed areas.

Silver Ridge Granite
A dense granite with sweeping gray-black movement against a white background. It remains cooler than darker granites and provides a clean, contemporary aesthetic for step installations.

2. Can I get a sample?

Yes! Email Support@stonesdirect.com with your desired product and shipping address. Samples are free, though shipping fees apply—we’ll credit that fee back if your order tops $2,500. Some samples can be ordered online via the blue hyperlink below the “Add to Cart” button on product pages. Note: Samples are for color reference only.

3. Where do you ship, and how long does it take?

We ship across the United States and Canada. Delivery typically takes 1-8 weeks, depending on the season and other factors. Special orders may require extra time.

4. How much is shipping?

Our automated system compares hundreds of carriers to calculate shipping, which we subsidize for you. Answer a few quick questions in your cart to see the exact cost.

5. How do I figure out how much I need?

It’s simple! On the product page, input your face feet, square feet, or linear feet to calculate tonnage. For “per piece” items, use the average piece length to estimate how many you’ll need based on your measurements.

6. Can I pick up my stones?

Unless you’ve got a commercial vessel, quarry pickups aren’t an option—delivery is the way to go.

7. Do you provide installers?

We’ve got a network of contractors! Contact us to check if there’s one near you.

Shipping costs appear in your cart once you’ve answered the shipping prompts and entered your zip code—rates are subsidized for your savings. Please note these are spot quotes and are subject to change slightly on actual shipping date - we do not control these rates from 3PL carriers. We do, however, work with over 100 carriers to get the best price.

Pallets exceeding 1 ton (2000 lbs)? You’ll need a forklift or skid steer to offload from the truck as its too heavy for lift gates (check weights below the quantity box on product pages). No equipment? Explore renting a skid steer by the hour from your local hardware store. Still have concerns with offloading options? Call us and maybe we can find other solutions.

For orders under 10 tons and pallets less than or equal to 1 ton, we ship via LTL, and the stones are offloaded for you with a lift gate/pallet jack.

Returns? Due to their nature, stones are non-returnable and non-refundable unless damaged in transit.
