Hi Becky-This was done in stages on a new construction home. The stoop was poured first. Second, the porcelain tiles were laid but not adhered over the concrete stoop (it must be a porcelain tile if you're in a climate with freezing temperatures). Third, we then laid the individual river rock pebbles to create the edge of the stone path and traced around each stone to create the pattern on the porcelain tile. Fourth, the pebbles were removed, the porcelain tiles numbered, cut and repositioned and adhered to the concrete stoop. The last phase was to place the river rock pebbles, one by one to create the path. Like most tile, it was grouted the following day. A clear coat sealer was applied to the river rock pebbles only to add a bit of sheen to them. I have used this idea several times on higher end homes and people just love it! Thanks for the inquiry! Have fun with your project.

Jim, can you please tell me what the name of the paint color is on the siding?

Hi JP-The siding is James Hardie cement board and the color is 'Timberbark'. Thanks for the inquiry.

Hi we are installing hardie plank siding in Timber Bark as well and love the stone you used with it? What is the name of it?

Hello Becky,

See the previous thread on the stone pebbles. Surrounding the stone pebbles is a porcelain tile over the concrete poured stoop. No additional concrete was used in this process. Thanks
