John is not a contractor and had never installed our columns before. He took on the task and did a great job. Afterwards he said, “the finished product is very nice and the improvement to our deck is remarkable.” The project required 2 10 inch by 10 foot endura-stone columns. Below is a picture of the finished product.

Custom Home Elements is an East Coast company that specializes in extensive remodels. From full additions to patio covers and decks, Custom Home Elements will take your current house and turn it into your dream home. Shown in the following pictures, Vic at Custom Home Elements took a standard entry-way for a plain brick house, and turned it into a grand portico using Endura-Stone® Columns.

Because the portico needed to be an exact height, Pacific Columns designed custom fluted Endura-Stone® Columns with Corinthian Capitals to fit the specific architectural needs.  These 18” x 16’ Fluted, Tapered Columns were used as load-bearing supports, and placed atop custom brick pedestals built by Vic and his crew. “Thank You” to Vic and everyone at Custom Home Element for their great work on this project and for the great pictures.
