A stone wall is a work of art to be admired in the garden. Each individual stone is carefully chosen, sculpted, and set in order to create a beautiful and sturdy garden wall. A stone wall can be constructed with the purpose of retaining a portion of your property or can be free-standing, defining a space within your garden. Each wall project, whether it be a dry-laid stone wall or a stone wall set in a foundation, is unique with detailed technical issues carefully balanced with aesthetic goals. Commonly used wall materials are Pennsylvania fieldstone, bluestone, and granite.
