SCHWAKE STONE BRICK & FIREPLACE CO
About us
Robert F. Schwake began delivering stones in 1946, and with that first delivery, a tradition of quality, service and satisfaction was set into motion that we still value today - almost 70 years later. As the company grew and our reputation expanded, we began receiving requests for a more diversified product selection. In the 1960s we acquired additional yard space to accommodate more stone products, and the addition of saws to custom cut limestone on-site. Today that tradition of excellence continues. With a combined total of well over 200 years of experience in the industry, our employees bring expert knowledge and experience to every customer. Our Mundelein, Illinois location has a 20,000 square feet indoor showroom and a paved 7 acre outside display yard featuring over 100 varieties of building stone, 40 types of landscaping gravel and sand, landscape boulders, outcroppings, flagstone, marble and granite. While we have expanded our product offerings and services over the years, one thing that hasn't changed is our commitment to quality, service and satisfaction. One of largest expansion areas is our fireplace department. We carry a huge selection of indoor and outdoor fireplaces - wood-burning and gas-burning types in numerous configurations. We have over 30 fireplaces on display and all are fully functional so they can be seen in operation live in our showroom. We also carry a large assortment of fireplace accessories from doors, screens, brushes & stokers to various types of media such as fire glass and our newest introduction - a natural volcanic rock product for uses in fireplaces and fire pits.
