  • What is the white substance on bricks and how do I remove it?

    Is it mould?? I’ve got white patches along the wall outside my house, it’s the side that never sees sunlight so I think it could be mould or something. How can I solve the problem?

    What is the best way to clean or repair patches on stonework?

    Hello I have stone walls for my house which have been damaged and eroded over time that may need refiling, with some small patches of decolourisation in some areas from erosion/damage over time. These are Bath stone walls specifically and, where possible, I would like to resolve this myself. Are there any suitable materials that I can use without damaging the stonework?

    Is it possible to merge stones?

    Hi there, I have a slightly odd request. Could I hire a stoneworker to have two stones melted and merged into one? One is owned by myself and the other by my husband and we would like to merge them ahead of our wedding and then keep it on the mantelpiece. Thank you very much.

    Repairing bathstone

    We have a listed grade 2 house built in 1850's. Over the years previous owners varnished and painted the internal bathstone windows (all 9 of them) . I have painstakingly worked on getting this off (so far done 3). There is damage, not just on the joints but all over including the top curves. How do I get a really nice repair finish without it looking bodged??
