Sure, Virginia is endowed with a wide variety of rocks. Igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic -- you can find them all here. But finding that very specific look of a rock for your landscaping project can be very, very difficult, if not impossible. Imagine how much hauling and digging will be needed to find that rock. We have a better solution - creating faux rock features for your landscape. Sure it’s “faux” or fake in French. But it never compromises beauty and durability. It can be as good as the natural stones or boulders found on quarry sites.
Benefits of Faux Rocks
Faux rock features offer a lot of benefits. They can be made in any shape, size, texture, and color. So whatever design or look that you want, it is possible with faux rocks. These rocks can also be made in such a way that ugly utilities, such as tubes, wires, and hoses, are hidden from sight. No need to bring heavy hauling equipment in the site because they can be made on-site. But as mentioned, using the faux version doesn’t compromise durability. In fact, faux rocks can also withstand extreme changes in weather conditions and other elements. Best of all, using faux rock is the more cost-efficient way to go because it’s cheaper than the real ones. Another benefit is the ease of installation if you opt for the pre-built ones. There are also ready-made faux rocks, ready to be installed anywhere in your landscape.
Faux Rock Applications
The most common application for faux rock features is in waterscapes. They can surround ponds, be made into statues, or create cascading rocks for a waterfall. Such rocks can serve as the backbone of a water garden. Swimming pools are also made into a natural-looking water spa with faux rocks. They’re also often used for edging slope soil, giving the illusion of greeneries covering the otherwise deserted place. Their application is actually limitless, as they can be used anywhere in a landscape.
Real Look and Feel
Faux rock features have been in the industry for decades, so many passionate artists continue to improve techniques to be able to create rocks that are so real to look at and so real to the feel. However, the success of using such features depends largely on the contractor. By hiring us, you are hiring someone experienced and creative. We’ve already done similar projects in Roanoke, Salem, Vinton, and other key cities of Virginia. See our Portfolio. We don’t just build faux rock features. We can design and build an entire landscape for you, too.
