Stone Sills, Caps and Coping

Window sills, wall caps, pier caps, water tables and pool coping are the pieces that finish masonry and keep water out of its core. We set limestone, cast stone and other cut stone with proper slopes, drips and joints, and replace cracked or loose pieces.

Questions

About stone sills, caps and coping

Why do walls need caps?

A cap keeps rain from soaking into the top of the wall, which is one of the biggest causes of masonry damage.

Cast stone or natural stone?

Natural stone has natural variation and cast stone is made in molds with consistent color. Both can be good, and we show samples.

Can you replace a cracked sill without redoing the wall?

Usually yes, by carefully removing the sill and setting a new one with proper flashing.
