Freshwater Stone has been in the stone construction business for over 40 years. We’ve become a valuable resource for clients and other industry professionals who are interested in understanding best practices when it comes to installing stone. With over 34,000 square feet of shop space to work with and 13 overhead cranes at our disposal, consequently we are able to prefabricate most of our stonework in-house – everything from complete veneer walls to stairways, fireplaces and chimneys.

The advantages of this method translate into the ability to work year-round in a climate controlled space, in addition to utilizing our full inventory of stone, with all of our machinery and equipment resources within arm’s reach.
