Real Work, Real Homes
Before, During, and After
Every installation is set flush into the brick and framed clean. Here's a recent job start to finish.
A custom carved limestone address stone, professionally installed into the brick of your home. One simple design. Built to last for life.
You don't order a stone and figure out the rest. We handle everything: the carved stone, the masonry, the cleanup. Done in one visit.
Send a photo of the spot on your house. We confirm fit and give you an exact price.
Your address, deep-carved into 3-inch-thick real limestone. 8" tall by 16" wide.
We cut the opening and set the stone into the wall with real masonry work, not glue or screws.
No fading, no falling off, no repainting. It's part of your house now.

8 inches high, 16 inches wide. Readable from the street, day or night.
Real quarried limestone, the classic material of Chicago's brick homes.
Installed. The stone, the carving, the masonry work, and cleanup, all included.
Mateo Signorile's grandfather cut stone in Italy. That is the trade Mateo works in today, and it is the reason this company does one thing properly instead of twenty things adequately.
Stone was always the material people chose when they wanted something to outlast them. It does not fade, peel, or work loose the way painted numbers and stick-on figures do. The marker set into your brick will still be sharp and readable long after everything else on the front of the house has been replaced.
One craftsman. One trade. Carved by hand, set into the wall, and left there.
No. The opening is cut cleanly to size and the stone is set with proper masonry technique, the same way lintels and sills have been set in brick walls for a century. The finished install is weather-tight.
Yes. Most installs are into plain brick with no existing stone. If you do have an old, worn address stone, we can replace it with a new one in the same spot.
Typically one visit of a few hours. The stone is carved ahead of time, so installation day is just the masonry work.

Mateo Signorile, and only Mateo. His grandfather was a stonemason in Italy and it is the same trade. He carves the stone, he cuts the brick, and he sets it himself, so the person who quotes you is the person who does the work.
