Through the techniques taught at
Bill Child's Stonemasonry course,
my brother and I gained the
knowledge and confidence to tackle
backyard.
By applying the skills from the
course such as footing design,
correct mortar mixing masonry tools,
correct mortar mixing masonry tools,
backyard into a terraced yard with
we transformed a steep, unusable
curved granite walls, steps and
planters.
This work was completed for less

contractor, and the final project has
conservatively added $50,000 to
the value of my home.

am writing to tell you that this was one of my most enjoyable presents!
I appreciated the way you organized and presented all the basic techniques of working
with stone. Your artistry with stone is an inspiration, I was truly impressed. While I will
never come close to your skill and expertise, I enjoy trying to do as much as I can.
Thank you for a rewarding two days.
Sincerely,
Hubert Bruns, Duncan, BC
