We specialise in stone replacements

The right stone, dressed to match

At Edinburgh Stone Repair we specialise in stone replacements. Any stone that is structurally unsafe must be cut out and replaced using the same material, dressed to match the original sandstone.

There are many types of sandstone used in Edinburgh, including:

Blaxter
Stanton Moor
Peak Moor
Howley Park

We match the sandstone as closely as we can, to ensure the correct material is used and the building is preserved for years to come.

All of our stonemasons are highly experienced and have attended various courses at the Scottish Lime Centre.
