To fix a stone bench in its designated space, first dig out holes for the bench’s pillars. Line the holes with gravel and cover the gravel with sand. The gravel and sand provide support and drainage so the bench will not list into the ground over time.
Next, carry the bench or its pieces to the designated location. Usually, stone benches will have three separate pieces-the top and two pillars. Whether a single unit or in separate pieces, a stone bench is heavy so you will need at least two people to carry each piece. Once on site, assemble and install the bench.
Make sure the pillars are well spaced to keep the top balanced. As long as the designated space is level and you have a solid base for the bench’s legs, you will not need any special tools for the installation.
