Stone Address Markers

Whenever I do a public show I get the greatest feedback from our stone address markers. Stone address markers are an elegant and affordable way to display your home's address. There are many options to creating a personal address marker for your home! Families can choose to have their numbers displayed vertically or horizontally, with graphics or without, large or small. 

Installation of our stone address markers is easy! Typically the ground is excavated below grade where a concrete form is placed. You then fill the form with concrete that is mixed as dry as possible. Place the stone address marker in the concrete and brace with some wood 2x4's. Once the concrete has set up you can remove the braces and the concrete form and backfill the address marker with soil/barkdust from the surrounding landscape. Accent your new stone with plants and other shrubs. For visibility at night it is nice to install a landscape spotlight.

While the steps of installation are simple enough, the work is heavy and some people prefer to have us do it. We offer installation in the Portland/Vancouver metropolitan area for a small charge.
