KRC ROCKS!

This past Saturday, KRC Rock Lakeside was involved in the Lakeside Rodeo. Each year, we load up our flatbed truck with our most attractive products, including the always popular Blue Ice, and parade down main street. We get the crowd to yell "KRC ROCKS!," and then we honk the horn on the truck, which makes the parade-goers go wild! This is a fun Lakeside tradition that KRC Rock has participated in for years, and we plan to participate in it for years to come!

Relax with a Zen Fountain!

If you’re looking to add an element of feng shui to your outdoor living or garden area, try adding a zen fountain! Zen fountains achieve a perfect sense of balance and tranquility while requiring little maintenance and upkeep. By using one of our pondless waterfall kits, you can create a custom zen fountain that fits a wide range of outdoor spaces and looks.

Use our mini kit to create a zen fountain that’s up to 12 feet tall, or our signature series to create one that’s up to 16 feet tall. KRC Rock has an infinite array of stone, rock and pebble options to build an aesthetically pleasing exterior on your fountain. Come in to any KRC Rock location and tour our inventory. Any of our staff members would be happy to assist you in selecting the right rock materials that fit your needs.

Are you installing your zen fountains yourself? Here are some helpful tips. And be sure to check out or gallery for ideas and inspiration!

An Easy Way to Add a Water Feature

Are you looking to add a striking water feature to your outdoor oasis? A pondless waterfall kit, combined with natural rock from KRC Rock, is the perfect inexpensive, easy and low maintenance option.

Pondless waterfalls are easy to install. As demonstrated by our seminar this past Saturday, a waterfall can be installed and up and running in two hours. It’s a great option for the D-I-Yer or the professional. Once the waterfall is set up, it requires very little maintenance. Since there’s no pond or fish to take care of, the only necessary upkeep is occasionally cleaning the pump and refilling the water.

Pondless waterfalls are also the safest option for families with young children. There are no shallow ponds, attractive fish or sharp rocks to attract and harm young and curious explorers.

April is the perfect month to build your pondless waterfall. At KRC Rock, we encourage you to take advantage of our special pricing and discounts offered on products and pondless waterfall kits. If you’d like some advice, we’d be happy to assist you at any of our three locations!

KRC Rock Gives Back

KRC Rock was recently involved in an interesting community project. Our Lakeside location donated more than $2,000 in stone, and a polished flagstone bench, to help revamp a veteran’s home. Under the direction of sponsors Barona Casino and United We Paint, volunteers were able to give back to a man who served our country for 27 years, and honor his heroism and American spirit.

Jim Bounds had a career in the Navy, including time during World War II. On Saturday, April 10th, Bounds’ dedication of service was recognized when volunteers gave his Santee home a free makeover. Jim and his wife, Ruby, have lived in the house for 40 years, and as they’ve aged, the house has become in need of changes and repairs.

The volunteers did a great job, and Jim and Ruby couldn’t be happier with the results! Check out the project pictures!

April is Pondless Water Feature Month!

It’s April, and that means it’s Pondless Water Features month at KRC Rock! Features such as fountains, cascades, waterfalls and streams can be self contained, safe for the family, and easy to maintain. Today at KRC Rock, we can make it easy for anyone to have a water feature in their landscaping. Because the water is re-circulated and there is no large, standing body of water to evaporate, these pondless water features are perfect in our drought tolerant designs, creating a cooling feeling to the drier surroundings.

April is the ideal time to make a design change to your yard that includes adding the sound of running water. From free seminars to specials, KRC Rock has everything you need to make your fountain or waterfall a reality this month.
