By-the-Ton

Masonry Walls – Usually faced with “Sculpings” (irregular slate bricks) or split-faced veneer. See Wall Cladding.

Cold Cuts – Irregular in shape. Cold cuts can vary in size and shape up to large pieces approximately 9 s.f. in area. Thickness ranges from approximately 1 1/2″ to 2 1/2″, requiring a deep setting bed.

Flagging – Irregular-sized and roughly rectangular in shape. May have 0 – 2 natural edges and 0 – 4 sawn edges. Sizes range approximately 8-16″ wide x 12-24″ long. Readily available in Unfading Green and Unfading Mottled Green & Purple. Other colors available by order.

Blocks – From time to time large raw blocks from our quarry, rich with texture, are used in landscape design.

Some materials are “unfading”, meaning they will hold their basic color even after many years of exterior use. Others are “weathering” or “semi-weathering”, meaning they will change color (usually to shades of brown) when used outside. A stone’s weathering characteristic is primarily an aesthetic consideration. “Weathering” in and of itself does not adversely affect the performance or durability of a stone. See stones below for weathering characteristics.

Depends on stone selected. See stones below for available finishes.

Custom sizes for landscaping stones depend on stone selected, finish, thickness, joint width and other factors.

Depends on use, stone selected, finish, piece size, setting method and other factors.
