Materials
Moyer's can help you create a lasting impression with timeless materials. Stone walls are a handsome way to define and improve your property. Building them is fulfilling work, but if done correctly, the wall will last a lifetime, if not a lot longer. I like to set stones in mortar because you can't beat a mortared wall for strength, which is important if a wall serves as seating or holds back earth. To preserve a dry-laid look, I set the stones in a mortar that's pigmented a dark gray and then rake the joints clean. Freestanding mortared walls need a stable, frost-proof footing to prevent shifting, and that requires a lot of digging in cold climates. Moyer's can help determine how much material you'll need, and have it delivered as close to the site as possible. Once built, you'll have a rock-solid wall without all the heavy mortar lines. |
