How it works
Book us purely for an independent inspection and report - there is no obligation to use Stonecraft for any repair work. If remedial building work is needed, we're happy to quote for it separately, but the choice is always yours.

Built on stone, trusted by generations
Stonecraft Builders SW Ltd has spent nearly five decades restoring and maintaining period properties across the South West, from traditional stonework to full property renovations.
That same experience is what stands behind our surveys and building consultancy work: our judgement on damp, defects and moisture problems is built on nearly 50 years of practical, hands-on building and restoration experience, not qualifications alone.
We're a small, independently owned team - no subcontracted chains, no middlemen. Every job is priced, surveyed and carried out by people who've been doing this for a lifetime.

OUR WORK IN DETAIL
Case Studies
Bathstone Bay Window Restoration
This Victorian property's bay window had suffered years of exposure to salt-laden sea air, leaving its Bath stone badly eroded and distorted. We removed the damaged stone entirely and reformed the surface using a bespoke Bath stone mix, gauged by Stonecraft to match the original exactly. All timber detailing was replaced using traditional methods, and the interior was re-plastered and insulated to improve heat retention. A new damp course was installed and sealed with a breathable finish, while the surrounding natural stone was repointed in lime mortar, coloured to match the existing work.
