Reasons Why You Want to Use Stone for Home Improvement

























Whether you’re looking to build a new home, improve the exterior of your home, or add some flair to the interior, using stone for home improvement is a wise choice. As experts in the field, we highly recommend the use of stone for a variety of home improvement projects. Read on to see why we recommend stone for your home improvement projects.

Stone used for simple home improvement projects can be found just about anywhere. You can look around your home, construction sites, open fields, private property and more. Make sure that you ask or find out the local regulations before gathering stone anywhere that is not your property. For high end rock and stone, you can contact us at Cloudstone.

Easy to Work With
Small stones and simple home improvement projects can be done with relative ease. For the smaller projects, you don’t need an incredible amount of expertise working with stone. However, if your projects is more involved and you want to make sure it’s done right, then we recommend you contact professionals in your area.

Highly Durable and Long Lasting
Stone’s natural attributes make it an excellent choice for using as a resource in home improvement. Stone is not only durable and tough, but also fireproof, vermin-proof, bug free and going to be free of rot. By choosing stone over wooden frameworks, your structures and improvements could last centuries. If you keep your home within your own family, your grandchildren could end up using the same home with the same home improvements!

Appealing and Maintenance Free
As stone’s surface and exterior does not rot, won’t attract termites and woodpeckers, doesn’t need to be repainted, and does not require other expensive maintenance, you’ll get to save money in the long run. Stone’s aesthetic makes it appealing to many people, both to homeowners and onlookers.

And many more!
Stone has many other benefits to be used for exterior or interior home improvement projects. From superior insulation and conventionally accepted norms to better resale value and higher longevity, using stone is one of our most recommended ways to make your home more valuable through home improvement.

Outdoor Stone DIY Projects

There are countless do-it-yourself (DIY) projects that you can take on to enhance your home in one way or another. At Cloudstone, we are huge fans of using stone for DIY projects in and around the home. Check out a few of our recommendations for DIY projects that you can use outside your home using high end, reliable stone!

Fire Pit
A fire pit is an excellent addition to your property’s exterior, outdoors living area. If you’ve never done a home improvement or DIY project, a fire pit is a great place to start. It doesn’t take too long compared to other projects, is relatively easy to do, and adds an incredible amount of value. Not only is stone an uncommon sight to see among many homes, but it allows you to enjoy an at-home campfire. It also makes for a great gathering place for parties and get-togethers.

 
Benches and Seating
The next project we recommend, especially if you already have a fire pit or just got finished building one, is to add stone furniture: benches, stools and chairs. Make sure that you know where you want all of your seating to be as it will be somewhat difficult to relocate once it’s been built. Once you know where you want your seating to go, it can add a very unique way to lounge around with friends and family.

Tables and Countertops
You can combine stone tables with stone stools, benches or other seating arrangements. Adding stone tables to your outdoor seating arrangements adds another layer of hospitality for both yourself and any of your guests or family. If you use an outdoor kitchen or tend to cook outside a lot, adding countertops can be another great option to add to your outdoor area.

Stone Walls
Constructing stone walls may be a more advanced project, but still well within the “DIY project” limits. Stone walls can be a great way of adding new design elements to your home, segregating certain areas of your home, or adding privacy in your neighborhood while still being stylish about it.

Regardless of what kind of DIY project you want to take on when using stone, we can help help you out! We’re happy to answer any questions you have and can supply you with the necessary ingredients and resources for completing your stone DIY project. Contact us today at Cloudstone and we’ll help get you started!
