Frequently Asked Questions
Can we visit the quarry?
You are welcome to come and see our newly renovated showroom.
Yard tours are available only if prearranged with management. If you have arranged a yard tour, proper safety wear must be worn in order to enter the yard.
Do you have a second's pile we can pick stone from?
No. You need to place an order for stone.
Does the stone fade?
Yes - If the project is outdoors the stone will lighten to warm grey/beige after a couple of years. If the project is indoors - the color will not fade.
How much does stone weigh?
Our dolomite limestone layers average 165 lbs per cubic foot. The eramosa marble averages 177 lbs per cubic ft.
Is this real stone?
Yes it is. Quarried from our property just outside Wiarton, it is 100% natural stone. Do not be fooled by imitators.
What about shipping?
We do not have trucks of our own - we can give you the phone numbers of trucking companies that you can hire.
What color is the stone?
The stone is either beige or black. Not all products are available in black. You can specify your preference when placing your order.
What is the lead time for material?
Each product has its own lead time depending on available raw product, volume of orders and time of year. Check NEW & NOTABLE for our immediately available products.
