It is a tradition among Bulgarians to build stone fountains selflessly, aiming to do good and to leave a memory behind.
Raymar's fountains are a wonderful and quick way to create a source of fresh water in your garden or yard. Made in Kresna, these stone products carry the spirit of tradition, the quality of domestic production, craftsmanship, and the respect for belonging and family.
The cladding is made from natural stone, giving it a monolithic and impressive appearance.
Here's what you should know:
- The stone fountain consists of two parts – a base (back) and a curved basin, both handcrafted.
- The cladding is made from hewn natural stone – Standard Series.
- It's possible to install an additional arch on top of the first one to create a deeper basin with an amphitheater-like effect.
- The opening for the faucet is located 77 cm from the ground.
The bottom of the basin is cast on-site around the existing drain. If there's no drainage channel with a drain, the bottom is filled with loose mosaic or smooth pebbles of various colors.
Approximate installation time for 2 beginners: 1-2 hours (excluding the time for water connection).
Our helpful tips
Consult with a plumbing specialist on-site before installing the fountain to connect the clean and waste water. The incoming pipe for clean water should enter through the prepared opening.
For casting the bottom, build a formwork of about 70/90 cm, ideally with the drain centered. The upper part of the formwork should be leveled with a slight slope toward the drain.
If the fountain will be freestanding (not attached to a wall), set the base of the fountain at a distance of 10 cm inward from the rear part of the formwork. To ensure stability, the base should be embedded 10 cm into the concrete. Level the back horizontally and vertically, and stabilize it with supports to keep it in place while the concrete sets (1-2 days).
After the concrete base has set, place the large ring (arch) close to the base and mark its position with a marker. Remove it and apply 2-3 cm of cement adhesive in the marked location. Also, apply adhesive to the ends of the ring that will adhere to the base with the same homogeneous adhesive mixture.
Place the ring in position and allow the adhesive to set well for at least one day.
Improving the yard or garden is an ongoing process that connects us to the natural cycle and our aspirations for a calmer and greener environment.
Raymar's decorative products can add much more to your garden oasis. The Standard Series offers outdoor pavements, planters, benches, tables, and much more, which you can find on our website or on-site with us in Kresna.
Like every beautiful thing and like every natural material, natural stone requires proper care and maintenance.
We recommend: always treat stone surfaces with the right products for natural stone!
Regardless of the type of stone and its location, a single application of sealing agent will save you unnecessary worries and greatly facilitate maintenance.
Everything needs care. Use the high-quality German products from AKEMI, with which we have been working and recommending for years.
The treated impregnated surface does not allow water and contaminants to penetrate.
The protection with a sealer provides resistance against the destructive cycles of freezing and melting in external conditions. Water simply does not absorb when the stone surface is impregnated but forms droplets.
Depending on the type of sealer, it may not alter the external appearance of the stone or deepen its colors. Choose among the following types of sealers:
"Universal" sealer, which does not change the appearance of the stone and protects against water.
"Wet Effect" - a powerful sealer, like the Universal one, but with colors standing out in a more intense contrast.
"Stain-Free" is the best sealer: it protects against water and grease, also without changing the external appearance of the stone.
The frequency of reapplication depends on conditions and the usage of the stone tiles (whether it is flooring and traffic intensity). Usually, AKEMI recommends every 5 years for exterior stone, flooring + wet areas, and 10 years for interior stone (wall cladding).
How to apply the sealer? - It's easy, like child's play. The stone surface must be clean and very dry. The liquid is applied undiluted with a roller, sponge, or brush. If the surface is smooth polished or matte, a second step is required: the so-called "polishing" with a microfiber cloth for 20 minutes after applying the sealer. And we're done.
What cleaning products are used for natural stone? - Some types of stone, such as marble and travertine, are sensitive to acidic, very strong cleaning agents (e.g. bleach). We recommend: always clean your stone surfaces with a pH-neutral cleaning agent.
Ask us if you have any more questions! We are here and happy to assist.
How to breathe new life into natural stone in the exterior?
In a few steps, natural stone can be restored to its original state, in its full brilliance and aesthetics.
First and foremost is regular cleaning and at least once a year thorough washing with a pressure washer. This is particularly important for our outdoor furniture products (barbecues, sinks, tables, countertops, and pavement tiles).
Once the surfaces are clean and dry, do not forget to apply a sealer.
Tip: Protect your outdoor flooring from furniture that may rust.
For specific stains such as oily spots, efflorescence (cement milk), mold, cement residues, or grout mixtures, silicones, or paints, it is best to contact us directly for consultation. Count on us; we will provide you with the right products to address the issue, wherever and whenever possible.
The durability of natural stone depends on the specific porosity of the stone type and its water absorption levels. For example, the porosity of granite and gneiss is around 1%, while sandstone has over 20%.
The biggest destructive enemies for items, coverings, and pavements exposed year-round are the sun and freeze/thaw cycles. When the stone is sealed/waterproof, you will receive maximum protection and much easier maintenance.
In severe cases of areas with contamination, the non-polished stone surface can be treated with an angle grinder and fine sandpapers. This process removes the top layer of the stone, making it look like new. (The process is similar to sanding wooden parquet.)
Stone is the best friend of the yard and garden. With love for beautiful, natural materials and proper care, the stone will continue to bring you joy for many years to come.
