We supply stone for homeowners, builders, stonemasons, architects and restoration projects across Bath, Chippenham, Bradford on Avon and the surrounding areas of North Somerset and West Wiltshire.
Whether you’re replacing damaged stonework, restoring an older property or constructing a new build you need appropriate stone that suits the existing building and the character of the property.
Replacement Bath Stone in particular needs careful selection. It’s about understanding how the existing masonry was built, how it’s weathered, and what will sit comfortably beside it once the work is finished. Colour, texture, grain and natural variation all play a part, and no two buildings weather in quite the same way.
We won’t promise an exact match, because natural stone doesn’t work like that but what we can do is help you find stone that’s visually and technically appropriate to blend with your existing masonry, whether that’s a single replacement block or a full extension elevation.
If you need to order stone for a restoration project or new masonry for an extension to an original building send us photographs of the existing stonework, along with project details, measurements or drawings if you have them. From there, we can help establish the right route forward, arranging a site survey if necessary.
Where a project calls for new build stonework rather than a match to existing fabric, we supply Bath Stone masonry and dimension stone worked to the specification required.
We supply Bath Stone for restoration work on historic buildings, period properties and listed buildings. We match stone for façade restoration, architectural detailing, weathered masonry, and correcting stone that’s failed in a previous repair.
Restoration work asks more of a stone supplier than a straightforward build, and that’s where selection experience matters most.
Where a large section of new stone is required to be added to an existing building we work through matching existing elevations, new openings, façades, quoins, window and door surrounds, and the wider ashlar and architectural masonry that ties a new section into the rest of the building.
When it comes to replacing damaged, weathered or inappropriate stone on an old building we supply individual blocks and indents for damaged masonry, along with replacement sills, coping, steps and surrounds, sized and finished for the specific repair, not just pulled from a generic batch.
We have the expertise and experience to judge the right stone for the job, based on practical requirements and aesthetics. We consider things like stone type, bed selection, grain, texture, colour, geological characteristics, exposure and weathering behaviour, provenance and compatibility with the existing fabric.
A homeowner wants to know it will look right. A stonemason wants to know it’s suitable. An architect wants to be able to justify the specification. We have the selection capability to reassure all three.
We cut and prepare Bath Stone sourced from local quarries according to the requirements of the project, from individual pieces through to full masonry orders.
We can supply:
Sawn and Cut-to-Size Bath Stone
Blocks, slabs, scant, stone sawn six sides, and dimension stone cut to bespoke sizes for the job in hand.
Profiles and Architectural Masonry
Window and door surrounds, quoins, copings, cills, string courses, mouldings, steps and other architectural details, worked to the profile the project calls for.
Dressed and Finished Stone
Hand-dressed and hand-worked stone, along with rubbed, tooled and sawn finishes, prepared to match the character of the surrounding masonry.
Provide us with the dimensions, quantities, drawings or schedules pertaining to your stone requirements and we’ll furnish you with a full quote.
