These are the material types we supply, grouped by the work they go into. Exact colors, sizes and quantities change load to load — call and we will tell you what is in and what can be brought in.
01Hand cut Italian stone, cut by hand rather than sawn, so the faces and edges keep a worked, slightly irregular character. Used for walls, caps, steps, patios and accents.
02Irregular flat slabs, laid as walkways, patios and stepping paths through a lawn. The natural face is what you see; the flat is what makes it walkable.
03Rough, blocky fieldstone and hewn blocks, for walls, steps, columns and stack work. Solid, square-ish stone that builds up in courses.
04Sawn and rough sandstone blocks in tan, pink and buff, for walls, caps, steps and border edging. Soft enough to shape on site, so it trims and fits where it lands.
05Ledge stone and blocky rock for dry-stacked retaining walls, garden walls and stone steps, with the flag saved for the treads and caps. It stacks without mortar and reads as a natural outcrop.
06Flat, roughly cut stone sized to fill wire gabion baskets, for walls and bank stabilization. The basket holds the shape; the stone fills it and faces it.
07Ledge and stacked stone for the falls, stream walls and pond edge of a water feature. Chosen for how it stacks and how it greys down and mosses once water runs over it.
08Smooth, rounded river rock in mixed grey, tan and pink, running from coarse stone down to fine pebble. Used for pond bottoms, planted edges and the soft joins between harder stone.
09Single large granite boulders, for a focal point, a natural seat or an outcropping at the edge of a bed. Hard stone that keeps its face, so what you pick is what you get.
10Pink granite shot through with black and white speckle, cut from a big block. Set a piece as a seat, a marker or a focal point in a bed, and the face is the whole reason for it.
11A boulder with a pinkish-tan outside and a dark green-black face crossed by white and pale green veining. One piece does the work of a whole planting bed if it is set where it can be seen.
12Boulders in mixed color — dark green, grey and deep purple-pink — chosen one at a time for their face. Not a load of uniform rock; you pick the pieces you want to look at.
13Angular crushed granite and gravel for paths, driveways, bed cover and the joints between flagstone. Angular stone locks together underfoot and drains instead of holding water.
These are reference photographs of the kind of stone and the kind of setting it goes into, not completed projects of ours.
