Drilling
A drilling service that bores a hole through a stone or column so it can run as a bubbler. The work turns a solid piece into a standing water feature without changing its natural look. This is the right choice when a column or boulder is meant to carry recirculating water.
The drilled channel runs a water line up through the stone, where it rises and spills down the face into a basin below. The standard hole is 1.5 inches in diameter, and special orders are handled on request. Drilling is priced by the linear foot of depth.
