Stone Slabs & Treads
Nothing evokes more strength and drama in the landscape than stone slabs used for stairs, landings, waterfall, benches, monuments, sign posts and meditation spots. Single stone slabs for fireplace hearths and mantles are also a striking statement and can even make cultured (fake) stone look somewhat credible when engineering or budget constraints won't allow the real deal on the entire structure!

Earthy colors of browns, buffs and grays with rustic textures set the theme for this material quarried in western Montana. We stock a good selection of slabs and blocky boulders and can take special orders for unique pieces if the lead time is sufficient. Have a large project?...consider ordering a truckload of varying pieces direct from the quarry and carry the Rustic Montana theme throughout the landscape.

This VERY rustic sandstone from central Montana is quarried from surface stone formations. This stone has a weather-worn texture and is highly colonized with tight moss and lichen. We stock a large variety of slab sizes from small pieces (100 lbs or less) for around small ponds to large (1-2 ton) specimens for large ponds, monuments or benches.

These Black Granite Stair Treads are a natural when harmonized with projects using the black basalt wall rock quarried in the Willamette Valley or with just about any other material. They can be embedded in a wall or
installed as a stand-alone, mortarless stair system using the modular landing extentions and "cheeks" that we have designed for this purpose.

These unique stair treads are made from Bronze Basalt Columns that are sawn like sliced bread in 6" thicknesses. One sawn surface is then thermal-finished to give it a more rustic texture. These unique treads can be used to create informal stairs, elevated stepping stone across a water feature or engraved for an enduring memorial.

Precision sawn and then flamed for a rustic, non-slip surface, bluestone treads have a wide range of applications and harmonize with about any style and color range. Stair treads, capstone, rustic countertops or large pavers are just a few of the ways this popular and versatile stone is used.
Modular Stair System: this stone stair system uses no mortar so can be installed by a homeowner with a strong helper or two for less than the cost of hiring a contractor to form and pour concrete steps or build something out of wood!
