Building Stones

Constructing a new home or any commercial building or furnishing your home? Then the first thing that should be considered is the entrance of the structure. The entrance being the focal point of any construction should always be attractive. There are various types of entrances that are offered by double L concrete that can make an entrance to any home or building look attractive. In addition to entrances, you can also contact them for building stones and other products and services related to construction and finishing.


For your entrance, the company offers products like wall caps, pier caps, gate piers, balustrades or bollards made from concrete. They also offer other types of entrances made of different materials. The building stone that may be chosen includes grey granite, yellow granite, white or brown sandstone.

Wall caps are also available in these materials. Apart from building stone, the company also provides different types of wall cladding that can make your entrance look very attractive.

Stone fireplace

A stone fireplace can give your back garden a beautiful stylishness and can provide warmth or a place to cook. Stone fireplaces are more durable and elegant than the likes of chimineas and will add value to your home. They are safer than fire pits and more pleasing to the eye. A stone outdoor fireplace is an investment which will make your home more inviting and more valuable.

Although stone outdoor fireplaces can be expensive, there is a cheaper alternative. A material known as stone veneer can be placed over fire stones to give the impression that the entire fireplace has been made from solid stone. These stone veneers are fire resistant, as they are made from real stone. They are not susceptible to chipping or fading for this reason.

A stone outdoor fireplace can allow you to spend more time in your garden then would normally be possible due to dropping temperatures. While most of us have to wait until the middle of summer before we can go outside in the evenings, having a fireplace outside can allow for outdoor evenings to be spent in the spring or autumn months too. This is great for having family or friends over to enjoy those evenings without worrying about the temperature dropping once the sun has set. It can feel just like being indoors except you can enjoy the sounds and smells of nature. The sound of the fire crackling can provide an ambient setting for an evening with friends or family.

Stone outdoor fireplaces are safer than chimineas or fire pits as they can be protected with a fire screen to prevent injury to small children. There have been countless incidents with fire pits or chimineas where they have fallen over when small children are inevitably running. Stone walls on the fireplace also give some form of protection as they don’t get hot like a chiminea thus preventing burns which could occur if someone were to accidentally lean against the scalding heat of a chiminea.

A natural stone fireplace will be safer, more durable and more stylish in your back garden than its portable counterparts. Don’t forget that the less expensive option of stone veneer is available which can allow you to have a beautiful elegant addition in your garden at a lower cost.
