Thin Natural Stone

Thin natural stone is a popular, versatile product. In the last few years its popularity has exploded, particularly as more and more people have turned to natural stone as an interior material, but it has always had a huge number of outdoor applications as well. In the past, designers were concerned that natural stone would always look rustic, but now people are better educated, and know that thin natural stone can be cut to fit smooth, straight lines and the most up to date urban designs.

We carry many different types of thin natural stone, such as limestone, Penn Blue Sandstone, granite, slate and quartzite. Colours, textures and patterns exist to suit virtually every design scheme and surface. If you want natural stone for flooring, fireplaces, showers or exterior patios laid on cement, thin natural stone is your product of choice.

Thin natural stone is available in specific cut patterns for a formal stone designs incorporating tile-style layouts and straight lines, as well as irregular shapes (“crazy work”) for informal or rustic designs.

Because thin natural stone can be cut to fit almost any design, you are free to concentrate less on fitting the stone in, and more on colour. There are too many colours available to list, ranging from red, rust and brown to dramatic blacks, blues and greens. We have always loved the unique colour of Penn Blue Sandstone, and highly recommend it for matching colour schemes. Whatever colour you choose, you can be assured that the stone we provide will be expertly cut, durable and represent the highest quality. Drop by and see for yourself!

Natural Cobble Stone Is Attractive & Lasting

Did you know that natural cobble stone lasts for centuries?  What a bargain!!  You can see the longevity of cobble stone still today as it was used throughout our history. Natural Cobble Stones have been used in landscaping and road construction projects for centuries.

Today we still use cobble stone in many of our projects. Natural cobble stone is used in roads, driveways, patios, and walkways. As we have come to know, landscaping with cobble stone can add value to any property while improving its aesthetic appeal. Cobble stone is a great landscaping and decorating choice. Not only are natural stones very affordable, they look beautiful and last.

The beauty of using natural cobble stone is they are ageless and the style or type of cobble used makes little difference when natural cobble are used.  Man-made concrete pavers go in and out of style.  Product colours change as well as sizes and shapes.  Whereas natural cobble stone is timeless, never seeming to go out of style, they can literally last for centuries. If someone installs cobble stone on their patio or steps, they will most likely not need to redo it for the duration of the time that they own the home.
