Natural Stone for Folsom Yards

Folsom sits where the valley meets the foothills. Many lots have slopes, rocky ground and views, which is great for stone. Walls hold back grade, steps climb hillsides, and boulders look right at home. Our yard on Excelsior Road is an easy trip down US-50 for Folsom customers who want to walk the rows and pick stone by eye. Anna and the staff are glad to look at photos of your lot and help plan.

Getting stone to Folsom

Folsom customers can put 5300 Excelsior Road, Sacramento into a map app or use the map on our Visit the Yard page. If you would rather talk it through, call (916) 363-4239. We are open Monday to Friday 7:00 am to 4:00 pm and Saturday 7:30 am to 3:00 pm. Please arrive at least 45 minutes before closing.

Delivery can often be arranged Monday through Saturday by flatbed truck. On sloped lots, think about where a pallet can be set down safely. Call with your address for a quote. For large boulders we can refer you to a crane placement company.

If you are hauling stone yourself, plan for the weight. Stone is sold by weight, and a Weighmaster records it less the pallet. Staff can help you load smaller items and bagged products.

Stone that suits Folsom's foothill lots

Hillside yards call for stone that looks natural in rocky ground. Moss Rock, Sydney Peak and Grizzly Stone suit that setting. Slopes often need stone steps and low walls to make usable space. Bluestone Treads and slabs work well for steps.

Some Folsom neighborhoods have HOA guidelines for front yards, so check yours before you choose colors.

Projects that suit Folsom lots

Stone walls that terrace a slope, steps down to a lower yard, and boulder landscaping are common. Pools and water features with natural stone waterfalls fit the foothill feel.

Natural colors like browns, grays and golds tend to blend with foothill surroundings and native plantings. Bring photos and staff can suggest stones that fit the setting.
