What are Stonemasons?
A stone mason is a craftsman who shapes rough pieces of rock into precise geometrical shapes. These pieces are then assembled to form structures. Stone masons are trained to select, cut, and shape stones, and then set them into place with meticulous precision. They are skilled in designing and creating beautiful, durable structures that can withstand the test of time.
Stone masonry is not just about aesthetics; it's also about durability and quality. It offers numerous practical benefits for house builds. Firstly, stone is an excellent insulator, helping to keep homes warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Secondly, it is fire-resistant, providing an added level of security. Lastly, a stone house requires very little maintenance compared to houses made from other materials.
For new builds, stonework offers a unique blend of practicality and beauty. Stonemasonry can be used in a variety of ways, from the foundation to the exterior walls and even the interior features. It can be integrated into modern designs to create a unique, contemporary look or used to replicate traditional styles for a more rustic feel. Plus, each piece of stonework is unique, giving your new build an individual character that can’t be replicated with manufactured materials.
