Welcome to Basket Range Sandstone

Please feel free to have a look around at our natural South Australian sandstone products extracted directly from our quarry on the property, situated in the majestic Adelaide Hills (only 30 minutes from the CBD).

We have a full range of products ranging from clean fill, to retaining walls, to paving and dimension stone for building houses.

Sandstone colours and textures vary throughout the quarry and can yield a hard, tight-grained stone through to a coarser, softer type. Colours can vary from pale pink to grey/black, but predominantly the stone has sandy, gold and light brown hues. This wide range makes matching to existing buildings possible and can provide the right colouring to satisfy a whole range of landscaping concepts.

Basket Range Sandstone can supply any size and shape of stone, from clean fill to smaller fist-sized stones (suitable for gabion baskets); from random wallers (field stone) to larger shaped rocks that need two men or a dingo to handle; all the way up to huge boulders.

We are proudly South Australian owned and operated.

Please select any of our products or services from the menu at the top of the page to find out more about what we can do for you.

Solid Building Stone

Basket Range Sandstone building stone has similar characteristics to that of many Adelaide Hills quarries which are now closed, making our product the best match for existing renovations and additions to Adelaide sandstone homes. There are many different styles and finishes available for new homes, from the timeless henpecked finish, to traditional hewn block, to rockface. Although we do attempt to satisfy all of our customer’s requirements, please note that as our product is a natural South Australian Sandstone and as with all natural materials variability in colour, texture and composition should be appreciated.

Sandstone has a much lower embodied energy than most other building products, only surpassed by wood and mud bricks. Locally produced stone minimises the carbon miles reducing the carbon footprint of your home. The high thermal inertia of natural sandstone will keep you warmer in winter and cooler in summer, (in conjunction with quality insulation) reducing the cost of power.

Landscaping Stone

Basket Range Sandstone provides stone for landscaping projects and has commenced production of clean fill and road base. We have stone for retaining walls, outdoor feature walls, pizza ovens, stairs and paving.
