New Generation Flooring of Wrightwood, San Bernardino County, 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.
