Boulder Construction

People have been building dry stone walls for centuries. Take a visit to Ireland and you'll see walls that appear to defy gravity winding amongst the green hillsides. Similar walls can also be seen in older parts of the U.S. Today, you can create a similar look in your own landscape with dry walling techniques. You can opt for a wall made of many small stones or a wall made of large boulders. Among the retaining walls we provide are raised garden beds and flower bed borders.

The use of natural dry stone in the construction of retaining walls results in functional, long lasting, sturdy structures. This kind of wall depends on the size and weight of the boulder itself for stability. Large boulders must be hand selected and heavy equipment is essential to setting them strategically to exploit the natural beauty of each one. You may visit the Rock Solid stone yard by appointment and hand pick the boulders that are desirable for your project.

Depending on your intended use we would suggest what the perfect size would be. Before pickup or delivery we do power wash all our rocks & boulders! Give us a call or contact us to setup a meeting to scour our 70 acres for the perfect rocks or decorative large boulders.
