Testimonials

"Living in a property which is more than 100 years old I was keen to find a reputable and skilled stonemason who could effect a high quality repair to some damaged stonework. As I was aware that Mr Cruickshank had carried out some similar work within my neighbourhood, I had no hesitation in accessing his expertise when I saw the quality of his work. He is a reliable and committed tradesman who clearly takes a great pride not only in his workmanship but also in ensuring that his clients feel entirely satisfied."

"We recently undertook an extensive refurbishment & extension to a B-Listed character property and sourcing a reliable & highly skilled stonemason was absolutely critical to ensuring the quality of the finished project, met our exceptionally high expectations. Calum was presented with a huge variety of tasks; stone cleaning & repointing, new external stone walls to tie in with the original, sourcing & forming new natural stone gothic window surrounds, reproducing an ornate stone gatepost, extending a chimney, repointing a stone feature wall internally, forming a new stone threshold to the main entrance & even repointing all sash & case windows with sand mastic. Calum tackled every task positively with enthusiasm & passion. Of all the trades we engaged on the project his work was consistently the finest. Calum is very easy to talk to & manage while his rates are fair & transparent. When a client or ourselves require another stonemason, I will not hesitate to recommend or contact Calum."

"Cruickshank Stone Masons have completed sterling work in the maintenance of the stone work at St.Paul's Church, in Milngavie and in other churches in the East Dunbartonshire area.

"Calum and his team repointed the gable wall of my house, replacing damaged concrete pointing with lime mortar. They also improved the look of a new, modern window by replacing the concrete lintel and surrounding stones with high quality, attractive sandstone. All the work carried out at my house was to a very high standard. Calum is an expert in his field and I was always confident in the quality of the work being carried out. Not only that, both Calum and his team are polite and a pleasure to deal with. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them."
