Having moved, we needed some help with a boring backyard and, even though this job was nowhere near the scale of the previous one, we were treated with the same prompt courtesy, attention and knowledgeable answers to questions. Brendan Rost provided us with a lovely design that suited our needs. He listened to our requests and had great ideas as to how to incorporate them overall. The staff who labored hard to finish the work were terrific. We have already made several recommendations to friends about choosing Rost’s for their landscaping needs. **★★★★★ — Darryl Winegar, Feb. 2014** > Rost continues to have the most complete portfolio of product installations and materials available. They are very professional and a pleasure to work with. ## Selected projects - [Large Scale Modern, Columbia MO](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/large-scale-modern-columbia-mo-pj-vj~4442154) - Location: Columbia, MO - Photos: 18 - Description: Stuck between loving clean modern lines and the natural feel of the lake around you?

The stone on the floor of this patio is called Pennsylvania Blue Stone. Thanks and let us know if you have any more questions! **Q: Where did you find the plan for the fireplace, what is apprx. cost?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: This particular fireplace was assembled as a concrete kit. The hearth is poured in concrete, then the fireplace frame is assembled, then veneer applied. There are several different companies making the frame kits, two that we have used are FireRock and Stone Age. Most finished fireplaces range from 8K-12K, all depends on the size, veneer type, etc. Hope this helps, thanks for the question. --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
