There are hundreds of choices available to you in the use of stone.
Stone varies depending on its geology, colour, dimensions, age and how it has been finished. When you use stone one of the most important considerations is the person who builds it. A high quality stone can be ruined by bad building and a good stone mason can turn an average quality stone into a beautiful piece of building work.
When you choose stone for your building work you should choose carefully. The reasons for this are:
- The wrong choice could be a potentially un-affordable mistake to rectify.
- To avoid disputes between building contractors and clients over specifications.
- Stone creates a value greater than its function.
- The legacy you create from stone will be likely to last for hundreds of years.
Please use our stone guide to help you choose whether you should use stone and what sort of stone you should use for a particular purpose.
