Co-founders and cousins Lenny Sciarrino and Lenny Pellegrino grew up in the family business, manufacturing, installing and restoring stone surfaces in homes and businesses throughout Southern California.

Response of the crust to a addition of a load (sediment accumulating or a large volcano): the crust “floats” downward to re-establish isostatic equilibrium and the elevation of the crust changes less that the thickness of the material added. . . a. . . q. .
