Custom rock orders & on-site engraving

Whether you choose a stone from our Rock Inventory or already have the perfect boulder on your property, we make the process simple.

Choose a rock from our inventory

Browse our Foundation, Homestead, Landmark, and Caveman Reserve Series to find the rock that's right for you.

Enter the Rock # in your request and tell us what you'd like carved. We'll contact you within 24 hours to discuss the wording, design and placement.

You approve the design before we start engraving.

I already have a rock

Have a rock or boulder already in your landscape? Upload a photo and, if known, its approximate width and height.

Tell us what you'd like engraved. We'll determine whether the rock is suitable for on-site engraving, then contact you within 24 hours to discuss the layout, pricing and next steps.

On-site engraving season

May 1 – September 1

On-site engraving is offered primarily during the warmer months, when conditions are suitable for sandblasting, painting and sealing. Limited bookings after September 1 may be available when weather permits.

On-site engraving requires suitable outdoor conditions, with temperatures ideally between 15°C and 24°C, along with dry conditions. Because weather can change quickly, scheduling may be adjusted to ensure the best possible result.

Sandblasting capabilities

Deep-carved lettering and artwork into natural stone, finished with paint and masonry-grade sealer for a durable, weather-resistant finish.

Materials

We work with a variety of natural stone, including Rundle, Kootenay, Moyie, Creston, and Locust Hill boulders and flagstone. Each stone is naturally unique in colour, texture, shape, and character, making every engraved piece one of a kind.

Delivery & setting

All listed prices include the rock, custom engraving, delivery, and professional installation within Calgary, Cochrane, Strathmore, Airdrie and Okotoks. Delivery to Canmore or Banff is available for an additional delivery charge. GST is not included and will be added to the final price.
