Why Choose Cruger Contracting for Bluestone Patio Replacement
Around Poughkeepsie and Dutchess County, we’re called in to replace bluestone patios that were installed too shallow, pitched incorrectly, or set on soil that couldn’t support the weight. Our replacement process removes the old stone, rebuilds the foundation correctly, and installs each piece with tight alignment and clean detail. The result is a patio that finally performs the way bluestone is supposed to.
Custom Bluestone Layouts
During replacement, we can match your original pattern or redesign the patio with square-cut or irregular bluestone for a cleaner, more modern look.
Built to Withstand NYS Weather
Proper compaction, pitch, and drainage systems keep your new bluestone patio stable through freeze–thaw cycles and year-round weather in New York.
Expert Masonry & Stone Setting
Every stone is reset by skilled masons who understand how bluestone should be seated, aligned, and supported — creating a permanent, professional finish.
