The importance of Stone Repairs

The material stone is a very popular choice when it comes to adding character and charm to a building, therefore it should be cared for very closely to ensure its value. Despite the several factors that can contribute to the deterioration of stone structures,  such as time or the elements. Spectrum can completely reverse your damage, leaving your buildings looking as good as new.

Is it really that important to get my stonework repaired?

Yet, is it that important to get my stonework repaired you ask? The answer is yes, yes it is. It’s very important to repair your stone as soon as the damage is visible to you, as it avoids further wreckage from occurring. 

If you leave your damaged stone facade untreated, not only can this create a domino effect of more severe damage to happen, leading to a more costly repair service, but it also detracts from the overall look of the building. Leaving your property to appear uncared for; losing the value that it could and should hold.

What types of stone can be restored?

As experts in this field, there’s almost no problem that we can’t amend. Our stonemason specialists love a challenge, but what different types of stone can we repair?

Stone statues are one prime example, with the process of stone cleaning, colour matching and the final repair service, a stone statue can be successfully transformed by our team. 

Stone property restoration is another challenge that we love to tackle. We take pride in being one of the few conservation companies that can restore stonework without the need for scaffolding, so if you have a stone property or elements of stone on your property, our team can ultimately reach and repair every angle of it effectively.

Stone ledges are another great example, and we’ve actually got a case study on this type of restoration, so click here to read more.

Other Minor damages can be repaired with stone patching with a tested colour-matching wet mortar mix.

Essentially, if it's stone, we can fix it.

What are the stone restoration solutions?

The first step to any stone restoration project is a deep clean, and this often reveals additional parts of the stone that require a recondition. We use the DOFF steam cleaning machine to achieve the most optimal results without creating damage to the surface of the stone, and this allows us to work on the most fragile structures safely and effectively.

Stone colour matching is another step in restoring stone. We utilise our lab to find the exact colour match so that the repair appears seamless. Our expert stonemasons follow these steps to enable the most impressive repairs. From graffiti removal to full-fledged stone transformations. We can do it all.
