Our Process
Design
Artwork can be helpful to communicate what the finished project will look like. We provide renderings with crisp lines and clear perspectives so that you can feel absolutely confident moving forward.
Selection
We carefully select the right stone for your environment and take into account surrounding architecture, natural growth, and colors. You are invited to meet us at a stoneyard and see what appeals most to you.
Preparation
Grading is often a major element of our site prep, and we are respectful of the project's environment, avoiding damage to tree roots and the like. We have a long track record of correcting water issues like flooding basements and soggy yards.
Installation
Using a variety of hammers, chisels, levels, and other tools, we notch, angle, and flatten stones to ensure precise fits and longevity. We routinely move extremely heavy stones without the use of a machine, where access is a problem.
Client-focused design
At Shining Rock Stoneworks of Asheville, we prioritize relationships: yours with your property, and ours with you. From the initial meeting onward, we remain focused on developing a space that prioritizes harmony and stability, and our partnership with you abides by those same principles.
Whether you’re looking for a quiet, secluded nook or a space in which to entertain family and friends, we will help your property be its best. Most of us live on land reshaped by development, sometimes without considering the impact of its new contours on future use. We design stonework that restores harmony to damaged landscapes or brings them into balance with new contexts, with ease of use at the forefront.
During our first visit, we survey your property and get to know your style and preferences. Whether you have a clear vision or need assistance in shaping one, our goal is creative collaboration. To help you visualize the final result, we provide detailed renderings of your project. These renderings allow you to see both the big picture and the particulars before construction begins. We want you to feel confident and excited moving forward.
We value transparency. We’ll keep you informed throughout the process and we welcome your questions and input at any stage. We also offer free estimates with cost breakdowns to ensure that you clearly understand the project scope and budget from the start.
Happy clients are saying...
