With its natural, rustic look, ledgestone veneers can be used to create a beautiful waterfall that makes a beautiful focal point in your landscape. Just make sure your structure is properly waterproofed, and your stone sealed for maximum longevity.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">The Enchanting Fountain<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Natural Stone Coursing, similar to ledgestone but larger individual pieces, can be used to create a unique and eye-catching fountain that can be customized to fit your landscape style.

Use them as a single feature in isolation, or in groups to create multi-tiered installations that provide the peaceful bubbling sound of natural water sources. Can be winterized for decoration all year long, just ensure your water is turned off and drained from the features before freezing temperatures arrive.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Get the Supplies You Need Today<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:257}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">At Grand River Natural Stone, we offer a wide selection of ledgestone and other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.grandriverstone.com\/building-supplies\/stone-surrounds\/\">natural stone materials<\/a> to help you create the perfect water feature for your space. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.grandriverstone.com\/contact-us\/\">Contact us today<\/a> to get started on your next project!<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:257}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"mt-4\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"btnBlue\" href=\"\/contact-us\/\"><b>Contact Us<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;re looking to add a touch of tranquility to your garden or yard, a ledgestone water feature is a great way to do so.
