FAQ

How did you get started building fake rock projects?

I started practicing in my yard making small ponds and little water features. I then took the leap and offered to build one for a friend for free if he bought the supplies. It came out cool so I took the photos I got from it to use in marketing myself to other clients at a home and garden show. It grew from there.

What kind of paint or stain do you use?

I use a high quality exterior latex paint diluted down enough to spray in hand pumped 1 quart sprayers. I've also used stains in the past but not recently.
