About Us / Mission:
Colonial Stoneworks was launched by Adam Bennett, a New Hampshire native who worked in the automotive and landscaping sectors for years before turning full time to stonework. Colonial Stoneworks serves as a comprehensive "hard-scaping" company with a heavy emphasis on sourcing many of the materials locally -- and often from the yards of the customers themselves -- servicing the greater Manchester area as well as a large portion of Southern New Hampshire and the Seacoast region.
Colonial Stoneworks places a heavy emphasis on reclaimed materials, creating everything from custom walkways to stairs, stone walls to mailbox posts, fireplaces to facades. In a state with an abundance of granite -- one of the most oft-requested materials for hard-scaping projects -- Bennett is certainly in an ideal location. In fact, one of the biggest sources for Colonial Stoneworks is a quarry in Milford that was one of the most heavily used of its kind between the Revolutionary War and the Civil War (rumor has it that the granite pillars for the U.S. Treasury Building were extracted from the same site!)
Colonial Stoneworks also be offers a full snow-removal and plowing services during the winters, making us truly a company for all seasons.
Colonial uses biodiesel, blended by a neighbor of Bennett's, in all their diesel machinery and trucks, and they go out of their way to use all other gasoline-powered machinery sparingly. The company even set up their own on-site 500-gallon storage tank to store the biofuel, which means less trips to the pump to fill up.
Furthermore, the company has instituted enforcement of weekly service and maintenance programs on all equipment and trucks to keep things operating at maximum efficiency, as well as having initiated a "no-idling" campaign. For their customers, Bennett recommends paperless billing and invoicing, drastically cutting down on unnecessary waste of paper.
Colonial Stoneworks is a proud Business Partner of the Green Alliance
