Cast Stone

Proximity to Real Stone

The close proximity of cast stone in appearance and performance to natural stone coupled with its greater flexibility and often lower cost has made cast stone an increasingly popular choice with house builders, developers and self builders who wish to add value to their projects.

Cast Stone Origins

Cast stone dates back to ancient Rome and the Coliseum making its first appearance in Britain in the Georgian period.

Cast Stone Today

Today cast stone is better made than ever before, exacting British Standards and improved 'ingredients' enable it to be used in a wide range of designs.

Cast Stone is regularly used for:

• Extensions
• Refurbishments
• Conservation work (including where the obtaining of planning approval can be sensitive)
• New builds where cast stone adds design quality, distinction and aesthetic appeal.

It is ideal to use for any architectural masonry (large, small and structurally reinforced), landscape feature or garden ornament where detail, visual appeal, quality and cost effectiveness are required.

It is also equally suitable for contemporary and period styles.
