Crab Orchard Walkway

Here’s a walkway we did with Crab Orchard Full Color stone and Crab Orchard Buff to balance it out. This client didn’t have any instructions other than to make it pretty so I took it and ran with it.

Tumbled Stone + River Rock Wall

Here’s a garden wall we built for a repeat client. I found some neat tumbled stone to build with. He wanted a wall between an existing boulder wall and is going to have a river rock waterfall between the two.

Chocolate Grey Flagstone Patio

We love this stone!

Weaverville Custom Patio

Chocolate Grey Stone

Custom Patio + Edging

Our clients let us pick our choice of stone for this patio so we went with the colorful stuff! Crab Orchard and Mountain Mist are the varieties. I’ve always loved rocks and geometry and angles, throw in some power tools and it can be a good time!

Swannanoa Staircase

This turned out nice, some 18” steppers up a steep hill. These are nice as we can get them to hard to reach places, which is everywhere around here, and they’re regular tread heights unlike erratic/natural steps.

Crab Orchard Steps + Landing

A staircase with Crab Orchard steps and landing with PA full-color bluestone. It’ll look much better when we get to come back and landscape around it.

Wolf Cove Flagstone Walkway

We love our flagstone and we love this kind of project!

Granite Wall + Return

Granite wall and return. We had to tear out an old wall, pour the driveway then reuse the stones for the new part. They wanted a seating bench on the return and luckily we had a stone that fit!

Fenner Patio + Staircase

Retaining Wall + Steps

Beaver Lake

Erratic Glacial Garden Staircase

Using local Hoopers Creek stone

Biltmore Forest Bluestone

This one took us forever…tough time of the year to do a mortared patio. And I have to go back and repair a spot I messed up 🙊. Still, came out to be a pretty walkway and patio. 1” PA bluestone with a thermal finish - it’s treated with an acetylene torch and it gives the finish a slightly pebbled texture.

Black Mountain Landings

We built a total of nine!

West Asheville Walkway + Stairs

This was a fun little walkway!

Weaverville Patio

Another patio done! This one presented a unique challenge as we only used stones from the previous patio and some stones we pulled from a walkway. So, we couldn’t waste any stones with cuts and had to jigsaw the joints as they were without cutting or much chiseling. Cool to work with old patinaed stone instead of the shiny stuff from the quarry.

Custom Patio

Had a great time building this patio area for one of our fav clients. Got it finished enough in a week so they could have Christmas dinner on it. Mel is super proud of her Unicorn Stone she worked in

Tennessee Stone Patio

Had a great time building this awesome patio! Put a built-in boulder bench for the client. TN stone with Easy Joint in the joints. Love the colorful stones!

Techo Bloc Wall + Steps + Pavers

Makes for a nice crisp and clean look!

Montford Patio + Firepit

Tight little patio build! Plus a firepit we rebuilt for a client.

Custom Walkway

Sweeping in stone dust and makin’ a mess with more dust

Montford Custom Patio + Landing

Nothing left to do on this project but sweep the joints… and a ton of cleanup ;-)

Reems Creek Patio + Firepit

Got to build this awesome patio for a super cool client and his wife who built their dream home off the grid (kinda). We’re honored to have put our touch on his awesome house!
