Specialist Heritage Masonry for Traditional Stone Buildings
JG Stonecraft undertakes assessment-led heritage masonry works to traditional stone buildings, farmhouses, and rural properties. Our work focuses on full elevation repointing, masonry repair, and chimney works using appropriate lime mortars and traditional methods. Projects are typically planned over several weeks, and we do not undertake small isolated repointing jobs, general brickwork, or cosmetic patch repairs.
How we work:
Assessment-led decisions before intervention
Mortars matched for compatibility, permeability, and exposure
Traditional methods and finishes appropriate to the building
Work programmed properly for durable, breathable repairs
What I am Known For
Correct specification and use of lime mortars for heritage stone buildings
Careful joint preparation and traditional finishing appropriate to the fabric
Assessment-led decision making rather than standardised repair methods
Work focused on long-term performance, breathability, and durability
Who I work with
I work with homeowners, surveyors, and other professionals responsible for heritage and character properties, including farmhouses, churches, and small estates.
