Our Malvern stonework services:
We specialise in Malvern Stone construction for new builds and extensions, using traditional quarried stone and time-honoured building techniques that create structures harmonious with the local landscape and architectural character. Our expertise extends to sourcing genuine Malvern Stone from approved quarries and reclaimed materials from heritage demolitions, ensuring authentic colour matching and geological consistency for restoration projects.
Our renovation services breathe new life into period properties, addressing structural settlement, weathering damage, and previous inappropriate repairs with sympathetic techniques that restore original character while improving performance. We excel in repointing using traditional lime mortars that allow stone to breathe naturally, preventing moisture trapping and frost damage that can occur with modern cement-based pointing systems.
Our repair services handle everything from minor stone patching and surface restoration to major structural rebuilding using Plastic Repair techniques for carved details and Piecing-in methods for damaged sections. We provide comprehensive wall rebuilding services for collapsed or severely deteriorated sections, incorporating modern foundations and damp-proof systems while maintaining traditional appearance and construction methods.
Malvern Stone Expertise:
Our deep knowledge of Malvern Stone's geological properties enables us to select appropriate grades and weathering characteristics for specific applications, from load-bearing walls to decorative features. We understand traditional construction techniques including random rubble walling, coursed stonework, and dressed stone detailing that characterise historic Malvern buildings.
We provide garden stonework including traditional dry stone walling, boundary walls, and landscape features using local stone that creates cohesive outdoor spaces complementing built structures. Our conservation work meets heritage standards for listed buildings and conservation areas, working with conservation officers and heritage consultants to ensure appropriate materials and techniques.
