Metro Parks of Nashville and their architects, Hargreaves Associates, needed a stone that would stand out at their new Park. Our sawed surface stone was selected because of its unmatched beauty, color and character.
Our professional and experienced team of stone cutters were able to fabricate every piece to the specific detail required for the project. Hardaway Construction was the general contractor on the project and Valley Crest Landscape Development did an incredible job with the stone installation.
Silvara Stone was chosen because of our 50+ years of experience with this type of detailed, high profile project. Every Radius, every cut, every angle had to be spot on for this to come together.
More than 1500 tons of raw material was quarried and fabricated to complete this project, and more than 10,000 square feet of our Crab Orchard Stone was installed. As you can see, there is nothing in the earth that can match the beauty and character of our sawed Crab Orchard stone.
LaFollette Project

This restoration project was designed by our experienced stone professionals and executed by the masonry professionals of our sister company, Teton Masonry.
The walkway was completely demolished and we reinstalled our variegated natural cleft pattern flooring.
The driveway stone was also completely demolished and reinstalled using our variegated natural cleft pattern flooring.
We replaced all of the capstone and step treads and repaired the dry stack wall. This was an extreme makeover-stone edition!
First Baptist Church

One of our signature stone styles, strip rubble stone, was selected for this church project right here in our hometown of Crossville, Tennessee.
More than 200 tons of stone was fabricated to cover 8,000 square feet of stone installed.
We bumped out every corner and column by fabricating 8″ bed depth stone instead of 4″. This revealed nice contrast and character.
Our masonry team did an amazing job handling all the “curve balls” a large and detailed project like this can throw at you. We finished on time and with rave reviews.
Ivan Project

This pool project was dreamt up by our team of professionals and the homeowners, and was executed by our talented masonry crew.
We laid the stone right over the top of the existing, unattractive concrete pavers. Our experience and creativity allowed us to trouble shoot the elevations around the doors and the drains.
We fabricated our radius, bullnose pool coping and step treads, then overlaid them on the concrete. This was an extreme stone makeover-pool edition!
Franklin Place

The owner of this majestic palace in the Nashville area selected our Castle Rock to achieve the look and style they desired.
Our team of masonry professionals installed the wall stone in a random ashlar pattern.
We incorporated a wide variety of stone types such as our sawed stone for the columns, water table, caps and steps.
We custom designed and built a radius firepit where every piece of stone was hand chiseled. The pool and spa coping were sawed and bullnosed.
We fabricated and installed more than 20,000 square feet of stone on this project.
