Stonewall Services:
Craftsmanship That Stands the Test of Time

Stone walls are often chosen for how they look, but in practice they end up doing much more than that. Inside a home, an internal stone wall can gradually become the point the rest of the room seems to organise itself around, whether that’s near a fireplace or along a main living space, while outside the same material is usually working harder, defining boundaries, providing privacy, and taking on the job of holding ground or shaping outdoor areas.
When we build interior and exterior stone walls, the thinking goes beyond appearance alone. Proportion, fixing methods, and how the wall will behave over time all come into play, so the finished result feels settled in its surroundings and continues to do its job properly rather than turning into something that needs constant attention later on.

A stone foundation does more than support what’s above it. It needs to deal with load, ground conditions, and drainage in a way that keeps the structure stable over time, particularly in areas where movement or moisture can become an issue.
Our team builds stone foundations as part of broader stonewall and masonry work, taking the time to get footing depth, base preparation, and drainage right so the structure starts on solid ground and stays there.

Stone works well in landscaping because it feels settled in its environment rather than imposed on it. In garden settings, edges and boundaries tend to work best when they’re set out with a bit of restraint, supported properly beneath the surface so they hold their shape over time without drawing unnecessary attention to themselves.
We design and build landscaping stone walls that manage levels, support soil, and guide movement through outdoor spaces, keeping the result practical while still allowing the stone to sit naturally within the setting.

A stone-clad fireplace wall often becomes the visual centre of a room, which means the detailing needs to suit both the scale of the space and the conditions the wall will be exposed to over time.
Our fireplace stone wall claddings are built with heat, fixing, and finish in mind, so the wall remains safe and functional while still providing the weight and presence that stone is known for.

No two properties are the same, and stone walls need to respond to the site rather than follow a fixed template. Material choice, wall height, and layout all play a role in how the finished wall performs and how it sits alongside the rest of the property.
Depending on the site, that can mean anything from a simple boundary wall to something more prominent, with the layout and build adjusted so the wall does what it needs to do without overpowering the rest of the property.

Stone pillars are often used to define entrances, driveways, or structural transitions, and while they may look straightforward, they rely heavily on accurate footing and alignment to avoid movement over time.
We construct stone pillars that feel grounded and proportionate, taking care with the base work and build-up so they provide both visual impact and long-term stability.

Stone or rock walls that have been in place for years often tell a story about how the ground around them has behaved over time. Over time, shifts in drainage, slow ground movement, or decisions made early in the build can place more strain on a wall than it was ever designed to handle, even though those pressures aren’t always obvious at first glance.
Once things reach that stage, removing a wall becomes less about speed and more about understanding what’s holding it up and what will be affected once it’s gone. We take the time to understand what’s supporting the wall, what’s sitting nearby, and how the area will be used once the wall is gone, so the site can be prepared properly for whatever comes next, whether that’s new construction, reworked landscaping, or a different type of boundary altogether.

Stone walls tend to fail gradually rather than all at once. Small shifts, deteriorating grout, or ongoing moisture issues can slowly affect both the look of the wall and its structural reliability, which is why surface fixes on their own often don’t last as long as people expect.
Before carrying out stone wall repair, we look closely at what’s happening beneath the visible damage, taking into account ground conditions, drainage, and how the wall has been constructed. Sometimes a careful repair will settle things down and buy the wall more years of use, but there are also situations where pulling sections apart and rebuilding them properly is the only way to stop the same problems creeping back in, especially once movement or other building repairs start to come into play.

Stone paving around pools and spa areas is exposed to conditions that are tougher than most outdoor surfaces. Constant moisture, foot traffic, and temperature changes all place demands on how the stone is laid and how the surface is finished.
When we install stone paving in these areas, attention is given to drainage, slip resistance, and long-term durability, so the finished surface remains safe to use and continues to sit comfortably within the surrounding space rather than becoming a problem area over time.
Stone paving around pools ends up dealing with a lot more than people expect, so the way it’s laid, how water moves across it, and how the surface feels underfoot all matter, particularly once the area is being used regularly rather than just admired from a distance.
