Boulder Supply - Rock Carving




You submit a picture, poem or idea; specify what size rock and our artists will carve your design or text into a boulder. For a permanent  street name, family name stone, monument sign or permanent land marker, rock carving is a unique solution.

"The Preserve at Jonathan Creek" Sign Rock.  This slab of mountain granite was unearthed on one of our rock bars. It was approximately 4 feet tall by 17 feet wide and 18" thick. 

A local Architect selected it to be the entrance sign for a new upscale development.  

The rock was transported off the mountain to our shop where it was pressure washed. A stencil was created and we sandblasted the letters into the rock.

A Boulder wall was created and a footer was prepared at the entrance to the development.

Holes were drilled into the rock and one inch steel rods were inserted. A concrete riser was formed and poured locking the steel rods, the riser and rock together. The rock was then transported to the site.

A crane lifted the rock and riser into position and a third concrete pour locked the riser and footer together.

Finally the letters will be painted hunter green for contrast.
