Custom stone products crafted to your dimensions for your specific architectural project

When you require specific dimensions or unique shapes for your building project, standard imported tiles often fall short. Sourcing genuine, traceable material directly from the quarry ensures you receive the exact bespoke stonework specified in your architectural drawings.

We provide volcanic ignimbrite extracted from our Waikato site. The stone is cut, shaped or hand-carved without relying on mass production or automated machinery. This means your custom stone outdoor living solutions, pool surrounds and entrance pillars match your requirements.

Our natural, volcanic stone is very resilient meaning you gain a dense, non-slip material that handles the New Zealand climate for decades to come. You deal directly with
Hinuera Natural Stone to secure authentic materials for your residential or commercial build.

Supplying natural volcanic stone across the Waikato and around New Zealand

Supplying custom stone masonry for your architectural project

When you bring a concept or drawing to the quarry, you avoid middlemen and secure authentic New Zealand volcanic stone. Your custom stonework is shaped by stonemasons working on site.

Because the work is completed by hand rather than using CNC machines, you can commission highly specific pieces. You can request engraved memorial stones, rebated plaques, heavy bench stools, outdoor tables, solid stone columns and gate pillars.

Each piece of stone is recorded, dated and coded, so its origin can be clearly traced. When it leaves the yard, it carries a record of its provenance. You
work directly with us to bring your ideas to life.

Creating bespoke stone designs and unique garden sculptures

Because it is natural stone, every piece has its own character. If your project requires specific tones, the stone can be kiln-fired to deepen the colour from light beige to richer orange hues. This allows you to match existing renovations or create standout focal points.

Whether you are constructing a heavy retaining wall or commissioning a hand-carved piece, the material is cut to suit. The softer Awa and Mana grades are frequently selected for detailed carving, allowing you to incorporate organic shapes and distinct visual elements into your property.

garden sculpture today.

Delivering made-to-measure stonework without standard size restrictions

You are not locked into standard tile dimensions. When you require made to measure stonework, the material is priced by the square metre rather than by the individual tile size. This gives you total freedom to design large-format paving blocks or specific exterior veneers.

Pieces can be cut up to 800 millimetres, though these larger blocks weigh significantly more and require heavier lifting on your site. By dictating the exact sizes you need, you ensure your builder or bricklayer receives precision-cut stone that fits your engineered retaining walls, commercial facades and
stone cladding requirements perfectly.

Adding enduring custom stone features to your outdoor living areas

You can construct your outdoor kitchens, pizza ovens and barbecues using solid stone benchtops and upstands. When you incorporate these custom stone features into your patio or courtyard, you gain a surface that stays cool underfoot on hot days.

The sandy texture provides a high non-slip rating, making it highly effective for wet environments. Bullnose or rounded edges are applied to remove sharp corners around your swimming pools. To maintain your stone features, you simply apply a penetrating sealer every few years.

Secure your
pool copings and custom pieces directly from the quarry to ensure generational value.

Yes, you can specify the exact dimensions you require. The stone is cut from large billets at the quarry, allowing you to dictate the size of your paving blocks or cladding pieces.

No, Hinuera Natural Stone purely manufactures and supplies the product. You will need to arrange your own builder, bricklayer or stonemason to complete the installation using the provided technical guides.

Yes, the stone is highly durable and handles wet environments effectively. If you have a saltwater pool, you should avoid the Awa and Mana grades, as salt can etch into these specific stone types.

The volcanic ignimbrite is exceptionally dense and remains unaffected by extreme temperature changes. It retains a cool temperature underfoot during summer, while the natural sandy texture provides a secure, non-slip surface for your outdoor areas.

Yes, because the stone is extracted from the same quarry face, new blocks closely match historical installations. The stone can also be kiln-fired to replicate deeper orange or brown tones for a seamless visual blend.
