Craigleith Masonry
Conservation, Repair & Maintenance of Historic Buildings.
Preserving our finest buildings for future generations.


MasonryWe, at Craigleith Masonry Conservation Ltd are a forward  ‘can do’ thinking organisation and are ambitious to succeed in the ‘building conservation’ sector of the construction industry and effect the highest quality work for our clients at best value prices.
We want to get back to the situation where Architects and Surveyors can simply ask for us to “fix that” or “build that” knowing we have the confidence and knowledge to do a job well. For the most part, the buildings we deal with are of solid mass wall construction, be it a combination of stone, brick and lime, what used to be called ‘stane and lime’ construction, roughly up until the 1920s it was the only way to build. If we find a building with problems, we know where to get specialist advice and seek this as a matter of course.

First and foremost , we have a well qualified workforce with a structure that allows our staff members to flourish and progress, they have a route and a path to progress embracing the Scottish Government’s ambition for life- long learning. Our sites are tidy and safe and a credit to our organisational skills, our Health and Safety regime is second to none, we closely monitor our staff’s health and well-being on an on-going basis, if our staff aren’t happy, nor are we.

All our sites have a Foreman in charge of them, site diaries are kept religiously, ensuring our clients will know what has been achieved each day and if there are any problems we can ‘quarantine’ them, offering you the paying customer total comfort that we are on the case.

The nature of the materials we use on a day to day basis, namely natural stone and hydraulic lime binders require patience until they achieve optimum durability, so if you have a traditional masonry building, expect the highest quality repair, it might take a bit longer but you can rest assure you are in the most capable of hands, we look forward to doing business with you....
