New Generation Flooring of Corona Del Mar, Newport Beach, CA
now offers Faux Rocks and Wall landscaping
services! |
Rock features are showing up
everywhere. Why not add them to your repertoire? The world's great deposits of
synthetic rock were once concentrated in zoos, theme parks and the occasional
museum exhibit. But times have changed, and these days, faux rock is cropping
up all over, from backyard pools and spas to shopping-mall waterfalls.
The demand for artificial rock is
booming just about everywhere. Only in parts of Southern California has it
peaked in popularity. But if someone wants to put in a sandstone waterfall, a
lava-rock barbeque, or a granite grotto, why not use real rock? There are a
number of reasons why faux is so popular.
- Cost is one big factor. For the
same money your customer might spend on a modest real-rock feature, they could
have a mini Grand Canyon made with synthetic rock.
- Weight is another
consideration. Pool decks or other structures that would fail beneath the
crushing weight of rock generally easily support faux.
- When it comes to water
features, which go hand in hand with rockwork, faux rock has no mortared joints
to leak and seep like real rock features do.
- Environmentally, faux
eliminates the need to tear up to the earth to mine real rock.
- It also offers versatility and
ease of use that real rock can't touch. You don't need to bore holes through
solid rock to hide the plumbing and electrical guts of a waterfall or hire a
crane to hoist boulders into place.

About Corona Del Mar, Newport Beach, CA |
Corona del Mar (Spanish for "Crown of the Sea") is a neighborhood in Newport Beach, California. It generally consists of all land on the seaward face of the San Joaquin Hills south of Avocado Street to the city limits, as well as the development of Irvine Terrace, just north of Avocado. Beaches in the area include Corona del Mar State Beach as well as Crystal Cove State Park south of Corona del Mar, accessible by paths winding down a steep hillside.
Settled early in the 20th century, the older area of Corona del Mar consists mostly of closely-spaced, free-standing, detached single family houses of varying architecture, concentrated along Pacific Coast Highway (also known as "PCH" or State Route 1). Newer developments in Harbor View Hills consist of California ranch style houses, many with expansive ocean views.
Corona del Mar has no locally administered municipal government, but receives all municipal level services from the City of Newport Beach, and has a representative to the Newport Beach City Council. It is unusual in that although it is a part of an incorporated city, the post office accepts a mailing address of Corona del Mar for those residents living in the 92625 ZIP Code, and the community has its own Chamber of Commerce.
