Training & Consulting

Our personalized training helps motivated homeowners tackle their own stone projects using proper techniques and materials. The results? Beautiful and long-lasting stonework on your property, and the pride of building it yourself.

Founder and partner Victoria Merriman is one of just a handful of certified Dry Stone Walling Association instructors in the state of New Hampshire and teaches several workshops a year at The Stone Trust.

We love teaching homeowners the basics of stonework, introducing them to tools of the trade, and watching their enthusiasm and skill grow as they learn by doing. If you have a project in mind at your home but need a little guidance and support to get started, a custom training could be a good option for you. Contact us today to share your ideas.

What our clients are saying...

I recommend Friction and Gravity LLC very highly. Their work product is outstanding and they are very creative. Projects like this often require some modification along the way based on the terrain or the available stone. I was very impressed how they would constantly examine each project to see the best way forward. They never lost sight of our original vision; on the contrary, they made modifications to enhance that vision. They worked very well with us and the process was enjoyable.
