Stone care, pointing and maintenance
Pointing, remedial repairs, stone cleaning, sealing and protecting, plus gravel driveway top-ups, to keep stonework looking right.
Stone lasts for generations if it is looked after. We repoint walls and cottages, carry out remedial repairs to tired or damaged stonework, and clean stone back so it looks its best again.
We also seal and protect stone, either on its own or as an optional extra after we finish a driveway or patio. We use Lithofin or other premium sealants as a rule.
Maintenance covers the ground too: we look after gravel driveways and replenish the gravel when it has thinned out or spread.

Questions
Things people ask
What does a locked-in quotation mean?
The price on the quote is the price you pay. Once we have measured up and agreed the work, it does not creep up part way through the job.
Are you insured?
Yes. We hold public liability insurance, which covers the project, our work and the materials. We also invoice electronically, so there is a clear paper trail and no cash changing hands.
Do you take the waste away?
Yes. We are registered waste carriers, so soil, old paving and rubble leave with us and are disposed of properly.
Can you lay floors inside the house?
Yes. Indoor floors are laid on tile adhesive over a prepared subfloor rather than sand and cement: natural limestone and stone, porcelain, ceramic and engineered wood. We can also install electric underfloor heating mats, ready for your electrician to connect.
Do you sell granite setts?
Yes. Natural split grey granite setts, 200 x 100 x 50mm, by the 1 tonne pallet with free kerbside delivery, through our eBay listing. We can also lay them for you as a driveway or driveway apron.
Which areas do you cover?
We are based in St Buryan near Penzance and work across west Cornwall: Penzance, St Just, St Ives, Hayle, Helston, Camborne, Redruth, Falmouth, Truro and the villages between.
Do you seal stone after laying it?
Yes, as an optional extra once a driveway or patio is finished, or as a job on its own. We use Lithofin or other premium sealants as a rule.
Can you match existing stonework?
Usually, yes. We source local granite and natural stone and match coursing, pointing and colour as closely as we can to what is already there.
