CREATE AN INTERIOR DESIGN STATEMENT WITH A NATURAL STONE STAIRCASE OR FIREPLACE

Natural stone staircases are the epitome of grandiosity. Nothing else captures the eye quite as much as the elegant lines of a stone staircase. Using traditional skills alongside modern cutting and carving equipment, stonemasons can create staircases to suit any building style - cantilever, spiral or freestanding, traditional or modern. And whilst natural stone is at home in traditional environments, it can be teamed with stainless steel, glass, or wood for a modern twist.

​

An elegant, hand-carved, stone fireplace is a lovely feature in any room, as well as providing that much needed warmth in the colder months. If you don’t want to use a ‘standard’ design, draughtsmen are able to turn your ideas into reality using photographs, lifestyle magazine pictures, or even a sketch.

Why choose natural stone?

Natural stone is getting more and more popular with self-builders and homeowners, who recognise the value of investing in this wonderful natural product. By its very nature, limestone is unique; it has character, stability, and opulence. Every piece has distinct flecks of colour and remnants of fossils. And, because it comes from the earth, it’s eco-friendly.

​

Natural stone is a very strong and durable material so perfect for staircases or fireplace surrounds. It’s easily maintainable, long lasting and only requires minimal maintenance to keep them in the best condition possible.

​

Limestone and sandstone are most commonly used for stone staircases and fireplaces. Popular types are Portland limestone and York sandstone, which are available in a range of colours.

​

Natural stone is also now more affordable than ever due to advances in quarrying and processing technology, making the process more efficient.
