Services
Stone Building
We specialise in constructing new stone buildings and structures across Edinburgh. Our expert stonemasons create durable walls, driveways, patios, and architectural features using traditional techniques. We match local architectural styles while incorporating modern engineering standards for longevity. Projects range from garden walls to complete house builds, all executed with meticulous attention to detail.
Chimney Repairs
Our certified stonemasons provide comprehensive chimney repair services in Edinburgh. We rebuild damaged stacks, replace terracotta pots, and install bird-proofing solutions while maintaining structural integrity. Using traditional lime mortars ensures compatibility with existing masonry. All repairs come with up to a 25-year guarantee for complete client confidence.
Stone Repairs
We restore damaged stone using specialist Lithomex repair mortar that matches original materials. Our process involves careful preparation, layering repairs, and texturing to blend seamlessly with existing stonework. This preserves historic buildings while preventing further deterioration from weather exposure.
Lime Pointing
We apply traditional lime mortar pointing to protect stone and brick structures. This breathable solution prevents water damage while maintaining Edinburgh's historic building aesthetics. Our skilled team matches existing mortar profiles and colours to ensure seamless integration with original masonry.
Stone Cleaning
Our specialist cleaning removes carbon deposits, algae, and paint from stone surfaces without causing damage. Using low-pressure steam and chemical treatments, we safely restore Edinburgh's historic buildings and modern stone structures. The process reveals underlying issues that our masons can address immediately.
