Concrete Driveway & Walkway Installation in Toronto & South Mississauga
Flagstone driveways and walkways offer a timeless, natural look that instantly elevates a home’s exterior. At Destination Pools, we design and install flagstone driveways and walkways throughout Toronto and South Mississauga, built on a properly engineered foundation to ensure long-term durability and visual consistency.
Flagstone is often chosen by homeowners who value craftsmanship, natural materials, and an exterior that feels intentional rather than mass-produced. When installed correctly, flagstone surfaces can last 20 years or more, especially when paired with a solid base and thoughtful drainage.
Many of our flagstone projects are completed as part of full exterior transformations, including landscaping, walkways, and backyard builds, allowing everything to work together seamlessly.
Why Homeowners Choose Flagstone Driveways
Flagstone offers a character that manufactured materials simply can’t replicate. Each stone has its own texture, shape, and tone, creating a driveway that feels custom and unique to the property.
Homeowners often choose flagstone for its classic appearance, its ability to complement both traditional and modern homes, and its long lifespan when installed on a proper foundation. Flagstone also ages gracefully, developing a natural patina over time that enhances its character.
For those looking to make a lasting visual statement while investing in a durable surface, flagstone remains a trusted option.
Flagstone Walkways That Create a Natural Flow
Flagstone walkways are a natural extension of a flagstone driveway. They guide movement through the property while reinforcing a cohesive exterior design.
We install flagstone walkways for front entrances, side yards, garden paths, and backyard access points. When driveways and walkways are designed together, the result feels balanced and intentional, improving both curb appeal and usability.
Flagstone walkways are often paired with landscaping elements, steps, and outdoor features to create a seamless transition between different areas of the property.
Our Flagstone Driveway & Walkway Installation Process
Long-lasting flagstone starts well below the surface. Our process is designed to prevent common issues like shifting, cracking, and drainage problems.
01.
Site Evaluation and Planning
We assess the layout, grading, drainage, and access points to ensure the flagstone design works naturally with the property and surrounding features.
02.
Excavation and Base Preparation
The area is excavated to the appropriate depth, and a solid base is installed and compacted. This foundation is critical for supporting the weight of natural stone and preventing movement over time.
03.
Concrete Base Installation
A reinforced concrete base is poured to create a stable platform for the flagstone. This step significantly improves longevity and performance, especially in freeze-thaw climates like Toronto and South Mississauga.
04.
Flagstone Placement and Setting
Each flagstone is carefully selected, placed, and set to ensure proper spacing, alignment, and drainage. Attention to detail at this stage defines the final appearance.
05.
Jointing, Finishing, and Clean-Up
Joints are finished, surfaces are cleaned, and the installation is inspected to ensure a polished, ready-to-use result.
Frequently Asked Questions About Our Flagstone Installations

Our process emphasizes preparation, structure, and coordination. Rather than focusing only on the surface, we build the foundation correctly and take the time to plan how the driveway or walkway fits into the overall property.
Yes. Concrete driveways and walkways are ideal for heated (ice melt) systems. When planned from the start, the heating system integrates seamlessly into the concrete base and improves winter safety while reducing the need for salt.
Timing depends on the surface material and curing requirements. We guide homeowners on when it’s safe to walk or drive on the surface to ensure long-term durability.
When driveway work is part of a larger project, we schedule each phase to align with landscaping, pool construction, or other exterior upgrades.
We walk homeowners through each stage of the project so they know what’s happening and what to expect throughout the installation.
