Natural Stone Wall Under Construction

Project Overview

These photos capture a natural stone wall mid-construction, with string lines and equipment on site. It shows how much layout and stone handling goes into a wall before it looks finished.

Whether a wall is new or being rebuilt, the same rules apply: a solid footing, good stone bonding and a plan for water. For materials, the installation process and price ranges, see our guide to stone wall repair and rebuilding.
