most other artificial rocks. They are stained, not
painted. The stain is actually absorbed into the skin
of the rock. Painting is used only for touch-ups. |

| |
| Will they blow away? |
| When mulch, soil, or rock is put around the edge at least 1" deep, the wind will not get under the rock and "lift" it. Although we have never had a report of any of Rock & Water products blowing away, we suggest in high wind areas mounting the rock slightly deeper (2") in soil and you can use stainless steel screws to hold the pieces in position. |
| |

made with fire retardant resin systems, which will
give a considerable fire resistance. But they are not
full proof fire resistant. Normally manufactured product

Artificial rocks are used to hide wells, septic, city sewer clean outs, utility boxes, motors, or can be used for landscaping & rock gardens. |
| |
| How does it compare to Natural Rock? |
| The artificial rocks are comparative in price to natural rock however with real rock. You often need a crane to lift them. If you were to build a pond with liner/ cement there is the expense of dressing the edges and work is much hectic and time consuming. When building a water fall or cascade from natural rock using cement, the natural water flow is often unpredictable, however with Rock & Water waterfalls/ rocks you have the freedom to change your design to suit, with the minimum of effort and can be assured of a controlled water flow. Also when you join the natural rock together, one can easily find the joint of the cement, but with expertise of Rock & Water rocks/waterfalls it is hard to find the joints of the rocks. |
