Why Choose Asheville Stonesmith LLC?

What sets us apart …
Matthew Smith, Stonemason in Asheville. Our attention to detail both seen and unseen. Sure you want your stone project to look great, but more so you want your investment in stone to be lasting.

Our stone walls are well hearted/self-supported and stand alone, not relying on soil (which settles) or gravel (which travels) to hold them up. This is what makes them “traditional” stone walls, because through the ages this is the style that endures. Using these tried and true techniques our walls can last for centuries. When they eventually need to be re built, you can use all the materials to build another structure. What is a “greener” building method than that?

We hand pick 90% of the stone used on your project. Every project is different. By customizing our selection for you, we get the right rocks for your project and minimize the amount of waste created while leaving you with a more finished product. This also benefits the planet by reducing the need for hauling away this heavy material.

Although we are capable machine operators and stone splitting technicians, we strive to use less power tools on your job site. There is something meditative about the rhythmic ringing of a hammer and chisel shaping a stone. By consistently leaving the saws at home we are less intrusive, dusty and noisy which creates a more peaceful/natural environment both audibly and visually.

Finally and most importantly, we are good people and we feel blessed to do something that we love! A large part of that is the people that we get to work with and the beautiful places we get to visit. We are performing a service for you and aim to make that process and relationship as harmonious as possible.
