Pointing – The mortar between stones comprising a stone building is known as ‘pointing’. However, where this mortar has worn away over time, Causer Stonemasonry & Restoration can engage in stone building repointing, which involves removing mortar before replacing it with fresh mortar.

Window heads and sills – A stone spanning across the top of a window surround is known as a ‘head’, while the term ‘sill’ is used for the bottom stone of the surround. For windows, Carl can cut heads and sills to various designs, styles and sizes.

Bespoke fireplaces – Whether you would like a grand, classic or ultra-modern design for a stone fireplace, Carl can build it to your design and specifications. The resulting fireplace, once fitted, can look like an integral part of your home whether it is of a more modern or traditional build.

Excellent work

Excellent work by Carl to replace an out of control laurel hedge with a beautiful stone wall. Carl did everything he said he would do, brilliant workmanship and excellent communication. If he says he can’t do your job for 3 months, my advice would be to wait!

Very satisfied with the results of the repointing of my stone-built house. Carl turned up when he said he would, was always cheerful and reliable and the results have not only cured the damp problems but made a massive improvement to the appearance of the house. I would happily recommend him.
