    Homeowner Johnny Zompanti has a problem: his nephew started a dry-stack stone wall in his backyard, but never finished it. Dean and Derek arrive to save the day and in the process demonstrate the proper way to install an old-fashioned-looking dry-stack wall using new palletized fieldstone. They take us from the quarry to the jobsite...where they provide insider tips on how to organize stone and build a solid wall that will last forever. Dean and Derek will also incorporate three granite steps into the wall and will demonstrate how to measure steps and cut the granite for proper installation.
