Hedberg Home Brick + Stone is proud to partner in renovating this historic building. The Pillsbury Castle Project asked us to identify, source, and re-produce the limestone arches at the entry, limestone window casings, and sills. Additionally, multiple large window headers had cracked from the building settling over the years and needed to be replaced. The challenge was that the original Platteville Stone from 130 years ago was no longer available. Our experts at Hedberg Brick + Stone were able to source some Platteville raw material and have it fabricated by LBM Fabrication in Wisconsin to custom-fit the original. This is one example of how we innovate to solve challenges in the industry that many others cannot.

We are thrilled to support this architectural marvel, located in the lively Whittier Neighborhood of Minneapolis.

“We designed a stone chimney and hearth pad for a wood stove with Joe Saba's help, he (and others) were fantastic to work with and the project turned out great. We installed the material ourselves, having no experience, and while a little intimidating, Joe walked us through the design and install process which was incredibly helpful.”
