Sandstone ballast

Sandstone ballast is cut into rough block shapes that work well for stone walls, garden beds, borders and retaining walls.

With its natural texture, irregular character and solid block form, ballast is a practical choice for projects that need structure and strength without the formality of fully dressed stone. It can be cemented into place or dry-stacked, depending on the application, site conditions and required finish.

Rough-cut sandstone blocks for strong natural stonework

Sandstone ballast is suited to landscape and masonry projects where the stone needs to feel natural, solid and substantial.

The rough block shapes lend themselves well to building stone walls, structuring garden beds, forming landscape borders and constructing retaining walls. Each piece has its own variation in size, texture and face, helping create a finished result with depth and natural sandstone character.

Ballast can be cemented into place for more permanent structural work or dry-stacked where the project allows. Go Stone supplies sandstone ballast from our Somersby yard and can help builders, landscapers and homeowners choose the right stone for the job.
