Dan's of Central Florida, Inc. on Feb 26, 2012Doug, what sort of stone is this? Are they just pavers and, if so, can you just replace the pavers? What sort on base are they sitting on top of? Some more information will help us to help you. :)Helpful Reply

Its Really Concrete, Inc. on Mar 04, 2012take out the surrounding mortar - pry up the offending flagstones - fill w/sand OR properly compacted GaDOT ('crusher run' 'base') - replace stone(s) - replace mortar jnts,,, if its less than 1/8" & NOT a trip hazard, find something else to worry about ;-)Helpful Reply
