Services
Stone restoration
Our stone restoration service rejuvenates weathered or damaged stone structures to their former glory. Using traditional techniques and modern methods, we carefully repair and restore stone facades, preserving historical integrity while ensuring structural soundness. This service is particularly suited for listed buildings, churches and historic monuments across Fife and Scotland.
Lime mortar pointing
We specialise in traditional lime mortar pointing that maintains the breathability of historic buildings. Our lime mortar work prevents moisture buildup and allows structures to expand and contract naturally, preventing long-term damage. This technique is particularly suitable for period properties and buildings constructed before 1910.
Stone cleaning
Our stone cleaning service utilises the advanced TORIK system with superheated steam for thorough removal of grime and biological growth. This gentle yet effective method cleans stone surfaces without causing damage, suitable for both domestic and commercial properties including churches and historic buildings across Scotland.
Stone dismantling
We provide professional stone dismantling services that carefully take apart stone structures while preserving materials for potential reuse. Our expertise covers all types of stone buildings from period homes to historic monuments, with services available throughout Fife and Scotland at competitive prices.
Stone rebuilding
Our stone rebuilding service reconstructs damaged or deteriorated stone structures using traditional techniques. We work with reclaimed stones to maintain historical accuracy while ensuring modern structural integrity. This service covers everything from domestic renovations to large commercial projects across Scotland.
