Atherton is one of the wealthiest cities in the U.S. with a zip code that rivals Beverly Hills.\u00a0 Streets lined with majestic oaks and towering cedars offer a serene park like setting for estates secluded behind tall masonry walls.\u00a0 The Lu Project required stone veneer for a Mediterrean style home located in a prime West Atherton location on a quiet corner lot of about 0.92 acres.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Walton & Sons Masonry placed cream colored limestone veneer set in an ashlar pattern on the main house, garage and poolroom.\u00a0 Six-inch thick limestone was placed to wainscot height.\u00a0 Above this, four-inch thick limestone was placed up to the soffit of the eve and gable areas.\u00a0 Special engineering was required to attach the unusually thick and heavy limestone as veneer.\u00a0 Walton & Sons Masonry manufactured and provided the split tail stainless steel ties required for the job.<\/p>\n

In addition, we set limestone veneer for the entry and radius walls.\u00a0 We built four masonry pilasters, low planter walls and placed the veneer and caps.\u00a0 We also built the chimneys and chimney caps.\u00a0 In addition, we aided the contractor by providing saw cutting services for concrete core drilling.<\/p>\n
