Types of Walls
Generally concrete block, for its strength and durability. The sky is the limit in types, textures, and colors.
Concrete block and natural stone are great options for these types of walls.
Granite steps and landings, flat natural stone, and cultured stone steppers all integrate into the landscape and will last for years to come
From granite boulders to Pennsylvania flat and everything in between, natural stone walls are a great addition to any landscape!
Ideal for dressing up existing concrete surfaces (steps, foundations, etc). Stone veneer can be installed inside and outside for long lasting durability and a great look!
