 STONE
CARVING |
|
On-Site Systems can produce
dramatic effects in carved stone for
building signs or neighborhood entry
markers. Stone carving by sandblasting
logos and graphics into the stone and
applying a paint fill into the sandblasted
areas highlights the design and gives
it an added dimension that can make
a great difference in the presentation
of your company image.

This
work can
be performed
into all
types of
stone and
can be
completed
in our
shop or
in the
field.
Sandblasting
varying
depths
into stone
can be
achieved
to give
it a 3D
effect,
along with
multiple
colors
to compliment
any design. |

Some
of the many
stone products
we work
with are
brick and
tile. They
can accent
your home
or business
in many
different
ways, whether
on a walkway,
entry way
or on a
wall, can
bring a
unique flare
to your
project.
Another
use for
both materials
would be
for fundraisers
for your
company
or favorite
organizations.
On-Site
Systems
can blast
most text
and/or graphics
that you
or your
company
may desire.
