When Stone Fabrication Becomes Necessary
Natural stone is a beautiful, durable material used throughout Ohio's commercial and residential properties. While it stands the test of time, certain situations require fabricating new matching pieces to maintain appearance and structural integrity.
Stone projects typically require our fabrication expertise for:
Damage Replacement
Physical damage from impacts, freeze-thaw cycles, or settling can crack or break stone. Fabricating new matching pieces provides a permanent solution that restores original condition.
Expansion Projects
Adding onto patios, extending walls, or expanding building features requires matching the original stone for cohesive appearance and seamless integration.
Historical Restoration
Historic buildings need replacement stone that honors architectural heritage while matching period-appropriate specifications and traditional finishes.
Missing Elements
Complete unfinished projects or replace lost architectural details with custom-fabricated stone pieces.

FAQ
How much does custom stone fabrication cost?
The cost of fabricating matching stone varies based on the type of stone, complexity of the piece, and project specifications. Simple replacement pieces typically cost less than intricate custom fabrication with specialized finishes or complex dimensions.
Do we need to have natural stone sealed or not?
All-natural stone should be sealed to combat water and other liquid absorption. Some natural stones have high porosity and should be sealed every six months. Cleaning natural stone with specialized products formulated for stone also helps with preservation.
What can I expect after receiving a fabricated replacement stone?
Your new stone's longevity depends on proper installation and the elements it's exposed to. The wonderful thing about natural stone is that if future replacement becomes necessary, we can fabricate matching pieces again, making it a true lifetime investment for your property.
How long does fabricated stone last?
Professionally fabricated stone will last for many years to come. It is highly recommended to use legitimate companies with a proven track record, as improper fabrication or material selection can compromise both appearance and durability.
