Only one local Oahu business has been manufacturing the highest-quality cast-stone veneer and garden products on the island for nearly 35 years. The company is Big Rock and its slogan is, “We’re not your average rock group!” The fact that the company is a highly regarded, long-standing local business is shown by how its customers spread the word and refer it to their friends and neighbors. Big Rock is located on a 1-acre property in Mapunapuna, where you will find its factory, offices, and unique outdoor and indoor showrooms.
After all these years, most consumers in Hawaii have heard of and used Big Rock for its residential and commercial projects, whether cladding interior and exterior walls with Big Rock stone veneer, or beautifying garden landscapes with its myriad of natural-looking Hawaiian cast stone garden products.
Most of the things Big Rock is known for are created and manufactured at its Oahu site. Other specialty items available are imported, such as the large selection of lightweight fiberglass stonecast products. These include numerous waterfalls, statues, decorative wall panels, and hollow boulders and Japanese bowl fountains, to name a few. A new addition to the stonecast line now is available at Big Rock, and it’s something all commercial and residential properties can use. The new addition is called hide-away rocks.
Very common eyesores in landscaping are the sprinkler valves and electrical plug boxes sticking up out of the ground. Not only are they unsightly, but they also are tripping hazards. Big Rock now has a solution that fits right in with the landscape and makes these valves and plugs disappear and blend right in. They currently are available in two sizes of smaller hollow boulders, specifically designed for the most common sizes of valves and plug boxes. They are lightweight Moss Rock boulders and they come nested together for a greater savings. You may also purchase them individually. They’re a simple but excellent solution to a very common problem, which will appeal to homeowners and landscapers alike.
While ordering your hide-away rocks, buy some of Big Rock’s amazing Moss Rock Stepping Stones. These are strong enough for a driveway and perfect for a path, as they are cast from natural flat stones and look exactly like natural rock. They are 3 inches thick, and available in five sizes, including huge pavers called “Alii stones,” which cover about 9 square feet each. Drop by for a visit, or email for information and photos if you are on another island.
Big Rock is an established Hawaiian company that started in 1983, and is a member of the Building Association of Hawaii, the Better Business Bureau and the National Federation of Independent Business. Since its inception, more than 6 million square feet of walls have been covered with Big Rock stone veneer and countless Moss Rock pavers, which the company invented in the early ’80s. You quite simply cannot tell the difference between Big Rock and the real thing.
