Grounded Stonework is a landscape design and construction business specializing in Dry Stonework. Among the most traditional, resourceful and enduring means of construction known to man, dry stone structures are built without mortar, grounded in the physics of friction and gravity. Throughout the world, ancient dry stone ruins bear testament to the inherent strength, beauty and resilience of their elemental integrity. Where mortared structures fail, dry stoneworks endure within the landscape, harmonious in form and function. At Grounded Stonework, we offer original design and build creations. Be it a failing wall, an eroding bank, a rutted out yard and/or a matter of puddling water during rainstorms, we provide a holistic remedy to the exploits of nature intrinsic to mountain living. From erosion control to flood abatement, ease of access to comprehensive aesthetic makeovers, we build retaining walls, garden terraces, stairways, walkways, patios and stepping stone paths.

"I was very impressed with Patrick Stollenmaier and his crew. Patrick was very helpful, giving us alternative choices re materials to use for the patio and design. The price detailed exactly how they would execute the job (very helpful when a design has to be approved by the condo committee, as ours was!) He and his entire crew showed up exactly on time every day and worked until the tasks scheduled for the day were complete. They were very professional and polite and answered all of our questions or referred us to the crew member who could. Each day, they left the work site neat and clean. We love the patio and walkway that they created for us and neighbors have gone out of their way to tell us how much they like it, too. My only complaint is that initially Patrick was a little slow getting the price quote and project sketch to us. However, the fact that the crew showed up when they said they would, did the work in a completely professional manner, and finished the job on schedule far outweighs that complaint. We would definitely use Stollenmaier Hardscapes again."

"David Shaw of Concretewrks followed up with me within 24 hours of my first contact to him. He came to our house and provided a professionally prepared written estimate several days later. The driveway work actually started about a week later and was completed in two weeks, a little longer than planned due to several rain delays. Our driveway exceeds our expectations and the price was very reasonable. David suggested adding a slight tint to the border pavers and it made a subtle and very attractive contrast. The whole job was well done. David and his team were very friendly and worked hard to complete the project promptly. I’m glad our neighbors recommended Concreterwrks and we pass forward the endorsement. Nancy and Roger Dexter"

"Flatstone patio 190 sq. ft. plus new landing and steps from porch. Skilled artisans, stones selected are awesome, neighbors envious. Graded appropriately, had to deal with torrential rains two days, but very happy with end product. Very competitive rates. Friendly team, Guillermo keeps in touch. Though they are seasoned stone and patio professionals, the carpentry on landing and steps is outstanding."

"We had the best experience with this company of all others we worked with in Asheville with our new build! The crew were excellent, on time, super polite, and did amazing work! The owner is so professional, cares about you personally and has great ideas for all your landscape needs. He is even doing some stone work for us and some new things we never thought of. We appreciated his dedication to our job and quick response time. The work was incredible and done in just days!"

"They also did tile work. Excellent work and finished product is great. Very detailed. Prep and clean up was great. Repaired any damages done."

"David and his team take pride in doing good, quality work. We had a retaining wall and new deck posts installed. Everything turned out great and we really appreciated the level of service provided. Would definitely re-hire for a future project."

"We had roof damage and our deck was destroyed during the hurricane. TG came in and fixed the roof plus tore out the old deck and replaced it...plus an addition to the deck and build a new roof for the deck. Wonderful work, very nice to work with and did not try to charge and outrageous amount. Would recommend to anyone. Thanks for a great experience!"

"WNC STONE WORKS, LLC is a great company to do business with! WNC did a great job replacing my failed retaining wall. Service and scheduling were prompt and timely. The estimate was done by the owner who was very willing to work with us on staying within budget. James and his team were very personable, professional and a great pleasure to work with. Skill, efficiency, responsiveness, reliability, dependability and ease of communication were the qualities characterized by all involved with this project. James was always available to answer questions and address concerns from start to completion. The work was completed within the time-frame initially given. When the project was finished clean-up was superb! I have NEVER experienced such a thorough clean-up previous contractors! I highly recommend WNC STONE WORKS, LLC"
