Stone Project Ideas

Every stone project starts with a few simple questions. Where will it go, how will it be used, and what color suits the house? Each guide below covers design ideas, which stones tend to work and why, the basics of planning and installing, and what to bring when you visit. Anna and the staff have 34 years of experience in the rock industry and are glad to talk through your plans. Call (916) 363-4239 or stop by the yard.
