We’ve built a reputation for providing a first-class service and the highest quality of workmanship on a wide range of the most complex projects. Each solution is created by our specialist in-house technical team and installed by our highly experienced directly-employed workforce. Our services include:
Externals: We deliver external cladding and full wall build up from (and including) the supporting structures.
Internals: We undertake flooring, wall cladding and linings, bathrooms, swimming pools, spas, wet rooms and staircases.

We’re deeply passionate about Heritage, offering a full restoration and conservation service across the UK and Ireland, tailored to meet even the most exact requirements.
Our impressive project portfolio demonstrates total capability. Project highlights include: the relocation and conservation of the Grade II* listed Manchester Cenotaph, the restoration and re-build of St. Brandon’s Church, Brancepeth which was devastated by fire, and the restoration of Kirkstall Abbey, Leeds, regarded as one of the best preserved abbeys in the United Kingdom.

We’ve built a vast portfolio of bespoke hard landscaping over many years – from Heathrow’s Terminal 5 Interchange Plaza, to the complex Penrose paving at Oxford Maths Institute, and the custom water feature and paving at Sheaf Square, Sheffield.
Our specialist team is here to advise on the most appropriate materials for any particular project, based on your performance criteria and aesthetic needs. We will provide you with the complete hard landscaping solution, including the installation of natural stone paving and other hard body materials, water features, street furniture, planters, steps, ramps and drainage.

We’re continually expanding our world-class offer to clients – and we now specialise in the installation of precast and GRC cladding, further enhancing our expertise in working with different hard body materials.
Project highlights include London’s Tottenham Court Road and Liverpool Street tube stations, Watford’s Intu Shopping Centre and the Trinity Shopping Centre in Leeds.

Initial technical, design and cost advice
Fully supported by the latest design technology and complying with all relevant British and European standards, our expert stone designers take an architect’s vision for a project and produce fully detailed layouts for the install team, as well as manufacturing information for all suppliers.
This includes full fixing design for new build cladding systems, together with ancillary items, insulation requirements, DPC’s and cavity trays. Our estimating team can provide advice on suitable material options and a pricing service for budget or fixed price quotations – giving you a complete service to the highest standard.

Material selection & sourcing
Characteristics of a stone can vary greatly – even for the same stone – depending on the location within the quarry and the direction it is cut. Our experts know and understand the performance parameters for each stone and can recommend what is appropriate for a project, understanding a stone’s final location and purpose.
Our extensive experience of procurement in the global natural stone market – and long standing relationships with quarry owners and stone suppliers – means that we can supply any stone possible for a project, including conglomerate, terrazzo, ceramic, ceramic granite, GRC and terracotta tiles.

Manufacture
We offer a complete service tailored to our clients’ needs. We understand that every project is bespoke, containing varying requirements depending on the volume, complexity and type of material being used.
We will carry out a high level of research to ensure the project goals are met, and source the appropriate production facilities from our wealth of well-established and trusted stone suppliers in the UK and around the world.

Delivery & Installation
We have considerable experience in the delivery and installation of projects across the UK and Ireland, from large new airport concourses and shopping centres, through to the restoration of historical buildings and monuments.
No project is too big or too small for our directly employed labour force – we take great pride in a reputation built over many years for providing the very highest standards of safety and delivery surety, with an uncompromising approach to delivering a quality finished product.
