Don't bother going here for smaller projects. The stone yard refused to sell me boulders (I needed 6-8) unless I bought the entire pallet. They must not want the business from small buyers.

World of difference in the employees and delivery than another stone place in Evans near my house. My stones were delivered intact and on the pallets so I didn't have a mess with broken pallets, wire fencing material in disarray and rocks across my driveway and the neighbors yard. Staff was friendly and nice. I recommend.

My first visit to the Rock Yard was great. Lots of selection, and friendly, helpful employees. I will definitely return for my next project.

Amanda and Jon are wonderful! Amanda has gone above and beyond to help me match rock for our driveway and yard! Will be there to purchase this week! Thanks so much for being so helpful!

Sadly, they don't have their own installers. They just hand you a list of installers and wash their hands. But, you really need an installer first, to look at what you have at home and advice you, and also measure the area and help you with buying the right amount of material. A top notch store would have that.

Needed stones for a turtle pond we were building in our back yard. The Stone Yard (which is part of the Tile Center) was very helpful in finding the right stones for the job. My wallet was very happy about the price we paid as well. The gentlemen that provided the customer service were kind, courteous, and very patient as we were unsure of what exactly we wanted. Thank you so much! "Rock" on!
