What type of stone do you use?
We specialise in Yorkshire sandstone, celebrated for its rich natural tones, distinctive textures and exceptional strength. Its versatility makes it an excellent choice for both traditional and contemporary stonework.
What kind of pieces do you make?
Our collection includes bespoke fireplaces, stone troughs, planters, hand-carved sculptures and architectural stonework, including window heads, cills, copings and steps. Each piece can be tailored to complement your property's individual style and requirements.
Will my piece look exactly like the photos?
Each piece of natural stone has its own distinctive colour, texture and markings, making every creation truly individual. Subtle variations are part of its natural beauty, ensuring your finished stonework has a character all of its own.
How long does it take?
Lead times vary depending on the size, complexity and finish of your order. As each project has its own requirements, we'll provide an estimated completion time when discussing your quotation and keep you informed throughout the process.

Yes, we can arrange delivery through our trusted haulage partners. Whether you're ordering locally or further afield, we'll help organise suitable transport for your stonework. Delivery costs are quoted individually based on your location and order requirements.
Can I make changes to my design?
We understand that plans can change. If you'd like to adjust your design, measurements or finish, please contact us as soon as possible. We'll do our best to accommodate your request, although changes may not be possible once production has begun and could affect the price or lead time.
How durable is the stone?
