Do stonemasons carry out site surveys before quoting?

Stonemasons may prefer to inspect the site before providing a final quote. A survey could help them identify potential issues such as access, preparation work, or hidden structural problems. Through MyBuilder, you can easily connect with a stonemason near you to discuss if a site survey is needed.

Can existing stonework be repaired, or does it always need replacing?

Not all damaged stone has to be replaced. Depending on the extent of the problem, stonemasons may use repair methods such as pinning, grouting or patching. A site visit will usually confirm whether repair or replacement is the better option.

Can stonemasons install fireplaces or chimneys?

Yes, stonemasons are generally able to create and install custom stone fireplaces and chimneys. They can work with various materials to create a fireplace that fits your style and meets safety standards. Be sure to ask if they have experience working with your stone of choice.

Can I find heritage or conservation specialists on MyBuilder?

If your project involves a listed building or conservation area, you can specify this when posting your job. Some stonemasons on MyBuilder have specialist heritage training and experience with traditional restoration techniques.

How long does a stonemasonry project take?

The duration of a stonemasonry project depends on the size and complexity of the job. Simple repairs or smaller tasks might take a few hours or days, while larger projects, such as building stone walls or creating custom stonework, may take several weeks. A stonemason near you will be able to provide a more accurate timeline once they understand the specifics of your project.

Does stonework need ongoing maintenance?

Stonework is highly durable, but some maintenance may be required over time. This can include cleaning, repointing mortar joints, or applying protective sealants, depending on the stone type and exposure to weather. A stonemason can advise what’s best for your property.

Do stonemasons create headstones?

Yes, stonemasons do create headstones. They are skilled in crafting bespoke memorials, headstones, and gravestones, often working with materials such as granite, marble, and yorkstone. Stonemasons often handle the entire process from design to installation. If you need a custom headstone crafted, post a job on MyBuilder and available stone masons can express interest.

Extensions- 29 Sep 2020
Kevin and his team are without a doubt the best bunch of workers you will ever meet. They work around the clock to keep us on target for the build dates. Their work is perfect and they left us with a a tidy site once they were finished. If you are having any work being done then give these guys a shout. Just keep them going with Coffee and a greggs sausage roll and they will just keep working. Happy to show you their work if you want. Thank you Kevin, Dave and Al. You made our dream home a reality. Will call on you again when we extend the kitchen 😀

I could not be more pleased with the job Tony did and would recommend him to anyone and have him back for any future building work required. He provided a detailed estimate broken down into the costs for each item and provided advice on material selection which proved to be perfectly correct. The final cost was well within the estimate. The work was done on time and the area was cleaned up each day with little or no mess. Excellent job and workmanship.
