With an experienced in-house design team and a management team of qualified stone masons, we deliver natural stone cladding packages with the technical expertise and coordination required for complex projects.
- Natural stone cladding including traditional masonry and modern rainscreen façade systems
- Design, supply and installation of SFS framing and secondary steel support structures
- Specialist façade materials including faience, terracotta and architectural ceramics
- Façade dismantling, refurbishment and stone reuse strategies
Solutions
Traditional ‘hand-set’ cladding is our forte, but we have completed contracts using different fixing methods including rainscreen cladding (see Woolwich Civic Centre) and load-bearing stonework. Our experience also extends to installing the stone cladding from mastclimbers rather than a traditional scaffold.
Natural Stone Cladding
We deliver natural stone façade systems for commercial and heritage projects, including traditional hand-set masonry and modern cladding installations using a wide range of stones such as limestone, sandstone, granite and Portland stone.
Rainscreen Façade Systems
We install ventilated rainscreen stone cladding systems, allowing façades to perform efficiently while maintaining the aesthetic qualities of natural stone. Our team coordinates fixing systems, cavity construction and façade interfaces with the wider building envelope.
SFS & Secondary Steel (SFS)
We design, supply and install steel framing systems (SFS) and secondary support steelwork required to support stone cladding systems. Early coordination with structural engineers and façade designers ensures structural loads, tolerances and interfaces are properly managed.
Façade Design Development
We regularly support projects during pre-construction and PCSA stages, providing buildability advice, façade detailing input and value engineering to help develop practical and efficient stone façade solutions.
Faience & Architectural Ceramics
Our experience includes faience and glazed architectural ceramics, commonly found on heritage buildings and specialist restoration projects. These materials require careful detailing, handling and fixing design to preserve their appearance and long-term durability.
Façade Dismantling & Stone Reuse
We have experience carefully dismantling existing façades and repurposing retained stone within new developments, supporting sustainable construction and reducing embodied carbon where reuse strategies are possible.
