Accent on stone
Creating a point of difference can enhance your home's visual appeal. Alpine Stone offers an easy way to achieve a variety of looks
Most homeowners would like their house to stand out from others in the neighbourhood to have a little extra street appeal or a distinctive feature that sets it apart.
Introducing a rustic element with an Alpine Stone schist veneer can provide such a feature. Alpine Stone New Zealand manufactures a variety of masonry products that look like natural stone, but weigh only half as much.
Managing director Colin Dawson says the lighter weight makes Alpine Stone easy to install and well suited to a range of building applications, including feature walls, chimneys, fire surrounds, landscaping, and even shop and office fronts.
"A dramatic transformation can be achieved in just a few hours," he says. "Homeowners also appreciate the fact that these design benefits come with an affordable price tag. In addition, they have the assurance that Alpine Stone meets or exceeds all building code requirements."
Stone types on offer include LedgeStone, Alpine Village Stone, Alpine Schist, Crawford Hills Stone and Riverstone. For added peace of mind, all the products come with a 55-year manufacturer's warranty.
