ABOUT OUR PATENTED PROCESS IN PRODUCING STRONGER 1” VENEER STONE

WE HAVE AN EDGE: OUR EXPERIENCE IN WORKING WITH THIS PROCESS FOR OVER 25 YEARS HAS GIVEN US DEEP UNDERSTANDING AND SKILL IN HOW BUILDING MATERIALS WORK AND HOW THEY CAN LOOK MORE NATURAL, ALL WHILE SAVING YOU HALF THE COST AND HALF THE TIME TO INSTALL.

Enjoy these ideas as you think about your outdoor projects and creating that perfect space for your relaxing hours. From wood-burning or gas fire pits to that ultimate stone grill, planning the perfect look and functionality of your backyard spaces will provide many hours of enjoyment and increases the value of your home.
“THINK ABOUT THE COLORS AND TEXTURES YOU ENJOY.“
From there you can mix and match textures and colors to create your own palette. Think about how your space will be used and how many people may occupy that space. Plan accordingly with plants and pottery, all accenting the colors in the stone you choose. Also be aware of scale and the sizing for columns and open spaces. For smaller spaces you’ll want to consider smaller stones and for larger spaces larger stones.
You also want to have a good flow through the space , so changing the pattern or color of the stones serves as a great natural border or pathway.
