Natural Stone

Wallstone:

Available in a both  random and guillotined stone, wallstones are perfect for use as a garden wall, but not as a retaining wall.  Natural stone walls cannot exceed 3.5 feet high and they should be half as wide as they are high.  For example, if you wall is 3' high it should be 1.5' deep at the base. 

The Random wall consists of irregular sized rock of varying heights and is difficult to work with if you do not have experience.  However, the Guillotined wall is split to give it a straight edge so that it is easier to stack.  Both walls can be stacked dry without mortar. 

Flagstone:

Flagstone are flat pieces of rock that make beautiful pathways and patios.  They are typically between 1" - 2" thick and come in four varieties: Random, Square Cut (pictured left), Tumbled (or Cobblestone) and Jumbo. 

Random flagstone is most popular and consists of irregular sizes and shapes that you piece together.  They can be mortared down or set in crusher dust or pea gravel. Square Cut flagstone are sawn cut to certain widths and lengths so that they piece together neatly.  This is much easier to lay than random flagstone.Tumbled flagstone (or Cobblestone) is irregular flagstone that has been put through the tumbled process.  It rounds the edges of the stone and gives it a weathered look.  The Jumbo flagstone is simply oversized random flagstone.  Pieces can be as large as 10 square feet.  

Building Stone:

Building stones are available is in a variety of heights to give your house a random pattern, but they are consistently 4" thick for installation purposes.  We offer many color choices and will be able to match up to your home. 

Also available are larger stones called jumpers.  These are typically mixed in with the regular building stones to accent the house front. 

Building stones can also be used to create accent pieces in the yard such as columns and arches (pictured left).  These are gorgeous additions to any home or property and improve the general appearance.

Steps:

Natural stone steps are a wonderful solution to a steep bank or a rustic area that concrete would look out of place.  Natural steps are available in two types: Random and Formal.

Random steps are irregularly shaped slabs of stone that are a consistent height (usually 6").  They come in a variety of lengths that is different for each type of stone. 

Formal Steps are typically flat on top and sawn or guillotined on all sides.  This also varies slightly based on which product you choose.
