Well, I’ve heard that materials are typically 20-30 percent of the project cost, the remaining 70-80 percent being labor. So, you should get the type of stepping stone you like, you’re suppling the labor.
I really like the ones I got for thesunroom landing. They’re 2”x16”x16” and run $3.79 apiece. So for 8 stones a weekend it should run a little over $30...and I’m going to need probably 4 bags of sand....less if I don’t dig too deeply. :)
