Artificial rock in Palm Desert
Custom rockwork, designed around your property.
Artificial rock is sculpted from high-strength concrete over a steel rebar framework, then textured and hand-colored to look like natural stone. Because it can take almost any shape, each feature is designed around your pool, yard and landscape instead of around the boulders you can find and haul in.
For properties in Palm Desert, we offer six core services: new artificial rock pools, slides, waterfalls and water features, repair and recoloring of existing rockwork, and commercial rockwork for hotels and resorts.
- Over two decades of experience
- Licensed & insured
- 3D design rendering before construction
- About 10 earth-tone colors on an average project

Why artificial rock
Natural boulders or custom artificial rock?
Finding natural rock in the right shapes and colors, then transporting it to your property, takes time and money. Custom-made rock is shaped and colored on site.
Natural boulders
- Limited to the shapes and sizes you can source
- Time and expense to locate matching colors
- Heavy to haul and place on site
- Hard to adapt to pools, slides and caves
Custom artificial rock
- Available in any shape and size
- Looks and reads like natural rock
- Less dense than natural stone
- Colored to complement the surrounding landscape
- Strong, durable and fully customizable

Design & recommendations
