Concrete Stepping Stones in Scotts Valley, CA
Concrete stepping stones are a low-cost way to run a walkway across a garden, lawn, or side yard. Central Home Supply stocks them at our Scotts Valley yard in plain, brick pattern, and slate-textured finishes, in sizes that suit both spaced stepping paths and continuous walkway coverage.
Cast concrete gives a stable, non-slip surface that holds up under heavy foot traffic and weathering, and it cleans up with a rinse.

Sizing and Spacing Your Stepping Stones
Set stepping stones about one comfortable walking stride apart, measured center to center, so a normal gait lands squarely on each stone. Larger formats like the 16 by 16 work as continuous walkway coverage instead of spaced steps.
Thickness matters on soft ground, since heavier stones settle and shift less over the years. A shallow bed of sand or crushed rock under each stone does more for stability than thickness alone. Our guide to laying a stepping stone path walks through the whole sequence. Bring your path length, and we will work out the count with you.
Where Concrete Stepping Stones Work
Garden paths, lawn crossings, side yards, and utility access runs are the common uses here. Textured finishes hold traction better on shaded paths that stay damp through the winter. Stepping stones need far less site preparation than a full patio, which is what keeps the installed cost down. Filling the gaps between stones with path fines, pebbles, or bark keeps weeds down and softens the transition to the surrounding bed.
On sloped ground, stone steps handle the grade change where flat stepping stones cannot. Our landscape stone steps guide covers that transition.
