Heritage Stone & Brick Restoration

Oxford is a city of stone. We specialize in the sensitive restoration of:

Cotswold & Headington Limestone: Careful "piecing-in" of new stone to match weathered surfaces.

Traditional Lime Repointing: Essential for the breathability of older properties to prevent "spalling" (surface peeling).

Flint & Rubble Wall Repair: Restoring the structural integrity of boundary walls and rural outbuildings.
