Stone Masonry Restoration Specialists
Serving London, Kent & the South East
What is Stone Masonry Restoration?
Stone masonry restoration involves the repair, conservation, and replication of stone elements on a building. This could include anything from replacing damaged stone blocks and indents, to recreating ornate mouldings and cornices in natural stone or stucco.
Over time, exposure to pollution, moisture, and environmental wear can erode or damage the architectural stonework of period properties. Restoration ensures both the aesthetic appeal and structural integrity of these vital elements are preserved — often using traditional tools and techniques passed down through generations.
At CBL Stone Renovations, we specialise in restoring historic stone façades and details, with unmatched attention to detail and craftsmanship.
OUR WORK
How Stone Masonry Restoration Works
Survey & Identification
We assess damaged areas, determine the type of stone used, and evaluate the underlying causes of deterioration — such as weathering, structural movement, or previous poor-quality repairs.
Stone Matching & Sourcing
Matching the original stone is critical. We work with reputable UK quarries to source appropriate natural stone, ensuring colour, texture, and durability are preserved.
Stone Repair or Replacement
Damaged areas may be repaired in situ, or replaced with hand-carved stone indents or cast stucco, depending on the scale and complexity.
Finishing & Blending
All new work is blended into the existing façade, aged where necessary, and repointed using lime mortar to retain breathability and authenticity.
Our Experience in Stone Masonry Restoration
Our team of trained stone masons and restorers are skilled in:

All work is performed in compliance with heritage conservation guidelines, especially when dealing with listed buildings or structures in conservation zones.
