What they’re saying about Stepstone...
"Choosing materials that enhance both the architecture and landscape is at the core of every CEARA Studio project. With a refined palette and customizable options, Steptone integrates beautifully with its surroundings, bringing an enduring quality that elevates the design. Perfect for creating a cohesive look, Steptone enhances the visual flow of any project, connecting each element with a timeless and polished foundation."

"We were able to look at a large variety of sizes and finishes, and Stepstone offers the same pavers on pedestals and mortar set (pool deck and coping) in the same finish for a continuous appearance. Really helps to get everything from one source vs a variety for consistency."

"When I think of Stepstone I think about two words – quality and integrity! Their diverse product line offers great flexibility and reliability to our design team, why we have specified Stepstone for over 20 years. Their pavers, stairs, and other hardscape elements come in a multitude of sizes as well as a variety of colors and finishes that satisfy our firm’s aesthetic requirements and our customers’ tastes for beauty and durability"

"Lydia, thank you for all of your extra care and hard work in getting our product together (multiple times!). It looks terrific and our clients are very pleased. No one ever really knows how much effort is on the back end of juggling schedules, adjusting billing, coordinating production, expediting delivery and still managing to ship a quality product. The fact that you guys succeeded at this is truly remarkable. You and your production crew have a Class A operation and were an absolute pleasure to work with."

"We love working with Stepstone. Not only is their product of excellent quality and craftsmanship, their customer service is off the chart! They have bent over backwards to satisfy some of my demanding clients’ color specifications and delivery expectations. We highly recommend them as a supplier of choice."

"There are number of reasons we specify Stepstone, but the most important is the quality of the product, from the variety of size, shape, color and finish. The modern aesthetic aligns with our design approach to landscape projects and the service is exemplary. We send an email or make a phone call and Bill immediately gets back to us and always offers additional information we didn't know we needed or could have! There's always a new module type or finish or installation he shares that gets us thinking of new ways to improve our projects."

"Stepstone has been a preferred manufacturer for Land Concern because they have always had the paver sizes we require, color combinations that work for our designs, and finishes that show off a hand crafted elegance uniquely Stepstone’s. They offer the highest level of customer support at every phase of a project from design to construction and after installation, as dictated by the job. Stepstone makes beautiful products and it’s a pleasure working with their people, especially Patty; who we’ve worked together with for over 25 years."

"As paver installation specialists, it is imperative that we have accurate pricing and lead time information from our suppliers. Stepstone is incredibly reliable, both at bid time and on-site, when the critical window for receiving the materials may be very small. Their product is fantastic, but more importantly to us, when we bid projects using Stepstone, we know that there will be no costly surprises."

"Stepstone is the most reliable and well-tested provider of pavers that I’ve worked with – same goes for most other landscape designers and architects that I know. The level of control in providing and replicating sample material is unmatched. Stepstone works with us through any challenge, whether that is customization, job-scale, or conforming to challenging constraints in the building code."

"Stepstone’s Pedestal Set Roof Pavers and Large Scale CalArc Pavers provide an elegant and durable solution for the exterior spaces on the “Good Haus” project – contributing to the expression of the modern, handcrafted, form. The Roof Pavers are to be used in a large outdoor deck that is both spatially and architecturally a continuation of the house, so specifying a material and product that provides seamless transition between the interior and exterior spaces was important. Of equal consideration in the product selection was choosing an easy to maintain, fire resistant, and beautiful material - all of which Stepstone offers."
