Lime mortar repairs consists of repairing the face of a stone that has become damaged through old cement repairs and pointing or weathering with a colour matched lime mortar that will allow the stone to deal with evaporation and breath again.
We can supply, dress and build all manner of natural and man-made stone to best match existing stone work.
Lime mortar pointing is a necessary part of long term maintenance to your property. The use of hard mortars such as cement for bedding and pointing natural sandstone has a adverse effect on soft stone so a suitable and durable lime mortar should always be used.
We encourage you to “look up” and appreciate the beauty of natural stone that surrounds us in Edinburgh, Fife & The Lothians. If you spot stonework that looks dangerous or in need of repair, call The Stone Doctor!
