April 26, 2012. Partially completed curling rocks sit waiting to be finished. Canada Curling Stone in Komoko Ontario, near London is one of two companies in the world that refinish curling stones. The company was founded in 1987 and by the early 1990s was actively refinishing rocks. Once curling season is over, clubs from across Canada and the United States begin to ship their rocks to the company were the old running surface is remove and a new granite insert is inserted. A set of curling rocks (16) can cost a club upwards of $10, 000 (CDN). Inserting a new running surface costs a fraction of that and will extend the life of the rocks.
