As a natural extension of our façade cleaning business, our stonemasonry division offers a comprehensive restoration service, covering all external stone, brick, and render types. This allows Thomann-Hanry® to offer a one-stop service for all your façade cleaning and maintenance requirements.
Our commercial stone masonry team’s remit is broad and encompasses every area of masonry conservation and restoration, from the repair of historic stonework, statuary, and monuments, to the production of new architectural masonry. Demonstrating best practices in all aspects of stonemasonry, our specialist team performs traditional skills and craftsmanship in state-of-the-art facilities.
Heritage Stonemasonry at its Best
Thomann-Hanry® is expertly placed to become your preferred stone masonry façade restoration partner. Our range of specialist stonemasonry services includes cutting and carving stone, from corbels and cornices to small indents, as well as the production of new architectural masonry as required. No matter the types of natural stone, our stone restoration services will help to maintain the integrity of the external building structure
We also offer mortar pointing and repointing using traditional methods and mortar mixes, to modern construction techniques and mortar formulations. This knowledge means that the Thomann-Hanry® team can work across different architectural styles, allowing you peace of mind, knowing that your building is in safe hands.
Considerate Masonry Restoration
To avoid unnecessary replacement of materials, we repair and structurally consolidate wherever possible. The same goes for re-pointing, which we only carry out where necessary, preserving the appearance and integrity of otherwise sound historic masonry and existing mortars. We also look to, where possible, ensure a close match to the original mortar in both composition and colour. Selectively repairing or replacing only where it is truly required helps preserve the original character of heritage buildings.
We also perform surface consolidation, including grouting and conservation resin repair, as well as premix render repairs for re-shaping mouldings and carvings.
Stonemasonry Restoration Specialists
With all stonemasonry capabilities in-house, works can be coordinated in parallel with complementary aspects of façade and masonry restoration and maintenance, providing clients with a comprehensive and perfectly aligned service. This joined-up approach to conservation also means our stonemasons can carry out on-site work without the use of expensive, time-consuming and unsightly scaffolding.
Instead, we use Mobile Elevated Work Platforms (MEWP) which allow us to work to the highest standards of health and safety, no matter the weather conditions, while delivering a high quality restoration service to your building’s stone masonry façade. Agile and able to reach otherwise inaccessible areas, our hydraulic platforms have a range of 37 metres (12 storey) range, meaning no part of any historic building is out of reach.
Commercial Stone Building Repair and Restoration
Thomann-Hanry® are proud to offer the benefits of highly specialised, traditional craftsmanship within the scope of a company known for its innovative and forward-thinking approach to conservation. We use traditional stonemasonry craft alongside modern power tools and equipment. This delivers a service which is steeped in the historical craft while looking towards the future.
“Stonemasonry is an ancient craft and a singular skill. You can always recognise a particular mason’s work – no two masons, given a similar piece of stone, will end up with the same result. For a stonemason, having the opportunity to work on projects such as King’s College or the Bank of England is an honour and a privilege, and at Thomann-Hanry®, we are proud to work on important restoration projects across the UK, helping conservationists to protect our heritage for future generations“
Thomann-Hanry® has invested heavily in our stonemasonry offerings, providing purpose-built facilities for stonemasonry work at our dedicated workshop annexe at our Park Royal depot. Our site includes an industry-leading dry-extraction system and a silent running compressor to provide world-class filtration and clean breathing air for our air-fed helmets.
