Stone Restoration project at Neilson Street, Falkirk, Scotland

The stone work on the front elevation of this traditional two storey building was showing signs of weathering, the dressed stone at the bay window/around the main door and at the corner of the building had lost the original fine tooling details and areas of stone had become soft and friable.
Using hand tools and natural bristle brushes, our stonemasons carefully removed the loose and crumbling stone. The next stage was to carry out stone repairs; using coloured lime restoration mortars, our highly skilled stone masons re-faced the damaged areas of stone to replicate the original in both colour and detail. All open, loose and cracked joints were re-pointed using traditional lime mortar pointing.
Lime restoration mortars can be used where the stone has not structurally failed, where a stone has failed, full stone or part stone replacements would have to be carried out.

Stonemasons in Falkirk, who can demonstrate a high degree of skill in the repair and restoration of stone buildings.
