Services
Offering a comprehensive range of Stone work services, including: Wall repairs, wall rebuilds, traditional repointing, removal of ivy/destructive plants as well as new stone walls.
Whether you need a small repair or a large-scale build with the tools and expertise to get the job done right.
Process
I focus on working closely with my clients to understand their unique needs and preferences and ensure that the end result exceeds your expectations.
Too frequently, traditional stone walls are being repaired using cement which does not allow the stones to "breathe", often leading to quicker decaying, less stability and internal damp problems. To avoid this I use traditional methods and lime, meaning your wall will not only last longer, but look and age better too.
What We Offer
Repointing
If your wall is showing signs of wear and tear, cracking/leaking or even internal damp is showing within your home then you may benefit from a repointing service. This will help bring your home back to its original beauty and functionality.
Wall Repair
This can range from replacing a few stones in an existing wall all the way up to rebuilding a wall that has collapse.
After the wall is repaired you won't be able to tell its a new wall because of where I use traditional techniques
Wall Capping
Repair of old capping as well as capping for a new wall, all different types: slabs, cock & hen, crazy pathing, half round, capping stones etc
Ivy/destructive plant removal
Ivy causes a lot of damage to a wall, as it grows it forces itself into the mortar and growing inside the wall forcing the wall to bow.
This can cause a wall to collapse if left untreated for long enough
