Stone Haven Celebrates Its 9th Anniversary

Stone Haven, Inc. celebrates its 9th year in business this season. Owners Mike and Sue Stone have brought Stone Haven from its small beginnings to one of the largest natural stone retailers in Eastern Canada. As the business has grown, Stone Haven has been able to expand its product offerings and enhance its service quality. An exclusive delivery service with J.J. Towing allows Stone Haven to offer 24 hour delivery of stock products. J.J. Towing’s boom truck has the ability to place product close to the job site. Six trucks help ensure prompt deliveries on busy days. Their service is second to none.

Stone Haven’s vast selection of landscape stone and thin stone for masonry brings tradespeople, home owners and architects from the Laurentians, West Island Montreal, the City of Montreal, the South Shore, Sherbrooke and Drummondville down autoroute 10 to take advantage of the variety and expertise on hand.

Tradespeople take advantage of Stone Haven’s wide selection. They encourage their clients to visit the business’ three and a half acre site and outdoor pergola showroom to help them make wise choices. Visitors can view different colours, sizes and shapes of natural stone from Quebec, Ontario, New Brunswick, Newfoundland, the United States, China and Brazil. The outdoor pergola showroom offers displays of patio, walkway and step stones, as well as wall stone and fountain displays.

This year owner Mike Stone will share his over 40 years of patio and wall laying experience through classes on how to build patios, walkways and stone walls. Classes will be by appointment only.

Visit Stone Haven at 570 Knowlton Road, in Knowlton, Quebec. You’ll be able to view pallets of Pennsylvania Blue Stone, slate, granite, limestone and much more, in a pleasant environment where expert advice is always close at hand.

Penn Blue Sandstone

Sandstone has an incredible amount of variety, and you can usually find a type to match your project. Our Penn Blue Sandstone is ideal for temperate climates due to both its colour and material properties.

Penn Blue is a tough, fine grained sandstone that we offer in smooth ( cut and flamed), tumbled, and natural faced varieties. 400 million years of heat and pressure give it a smooth texture and almost luminous true blue as well as our full colour (grey, brown, and rust colours) that make it ideal for building facades, walls, patios, steps and walkways. Its also popular for interior features such as flooring and fireplaces.

Here at Stone Haven Inc., we have some of the most durable and beautiful sandstone around. People have used Penn Blue to build houses and even bridges, so it should suit your landscaping and interior home needs just fine. Drop by our Pergola showroom to see how you might use it for walls, paths, steps and more.

Until then, take a look!
