Our latest project on Sask Crescent West definitely made our top five list as far as masterpieces go. The home owners gave our Masonry Designer, Ryan Watson full reign when it came to selecting the stone types and designing the homes stone details, a unique service that we specialize in and offer to our Commercial and Residential clients.
The hand carved limestone address was incorporated into the limestone door surround which consists of 17 separate hand carved pieces in total creating the ultimate grande entrance. Watson used a centuries old boasting technique rarely seen today in modern construction. This finish creates one-of-a-kind texture and depth to the surface that no man made machine could ever duplicate. Look no further when wanting to make your home or business like no other, period. This massive address marker is almost complete and will soon be installed within the homes custom designed, hand carved limestone door surround at our latest residential project on Sask Crescent.
Before Watson began carving, this piece was a simple rectangular chunk of limestone weighing in at 210 pounds. Once the hand carved address marker is complete around 50 pounds of limestone will have been carved out measuring in at 48" x 11".
