Natural Stone Options for Oklahoma Patios
Oklahoma Flagstone (Sandstone) — Sourced locally, with warm tan, rust, and brown tones that feel native to the landscape. Irregular shapes are the classic “flagstone” look; sawn-cut flagstone gives a more contemporary, precise appearance. Extremely popular in the Tulsa metro.
Limestone — Cooler-toned than sandstone, often in buff and gray shades. Very durable, dense stone that handles Oklahoma’s heat well. Particularly beautiful in more contemporary or transitional home styles.
Sandstone (Imported) — Similar to Oklahoma flagstone but in a broader range of colors including blue-gray, rust-red, and golden tones. Excellent for distinctive designs.
Travertine — The premium choice for upscale patios and pool surrounds. Cream and walnut tones, available in filled-and-honed or tumbled finishes. Stays relatively cool underfoot in Oklahoma’s summer heat — a significant advantage near pools.
Dry-Set vs. Mortared Stone Patios
Dry-set: Stones laid on a compacted gravel and sand base with no mortar. Individual stones can be lifted and releveled if they shift. Great for casual, naturalistic patio designs. Less formal appearance.
Mortared: Stones set on a concrete base with mortar joints. More durable, more formal appearance, and less susceptibility to shifting. The premium installation method we recommend for most Tulsa applications given Oklahoma’s clay soil movement.
Natural Stone + Outdoor Living Combinations
Natural stone patios look especially stunning when combined with natural stone fireplaces and retaining walls — creating a cohesive stone aesthetic throughout the entire outdoor space. We design and build these combinations regularly across the Tulsa metro.
