About Granville Stone & Hearth
For over 30 years, the Granville family of companies has been serving our friends and neighbors throughout Maine and the Maritimes. Our unique combination of offerings affords our customers many possibilities.
While growth and expansion have brought many changes over the years, we are proud that our fundamental business philosophy has not. We still do business the same way we did when we started many years ago, with the strongest emphasis possible on customer service.
If you have ever dreamed about an outdoor living area, complete with stone pavers, an outdoor kitchen, a gas fire-pit, and outdoor furniture we have you covered! When we say “We have you covered” we mean it quite literally. With all the product offerings from Durasol Retractable Awnings and Sunsetter Awnings, we have just the right awning to meet your needs, and all at the push of a button! Looking for heat? We do that too! Pellet, Wood and Gas fireplaces stoves and inserts for your home or business.
A business is only as good as the people they employ. We don’t make false claims about being the biggest or best. We just want to do a superb job of assisting you, regardless of the size or scope of your endeavor. We are on RT 1A in Holden, between Bangor, Maine and Acadia National Park. Stop by…your friends have…and keep coming back for more!
