Stone Mansion House Built By Phidias Neo-Classical of Bristol

Stone Buildings

Many of Britain's finest houses are built of stone. It has always been the material of choice for building houses or other buildings, thanks to its durability and relatively easy availability. Traditionally, local stone has been used, which has given whole regions a recognisable look - the honeypot Cotswold villages, for example.

Bath stone, Portland stone, limestone and granite are examples of the different types of stone used.

New Stone Buildings

You can trust in Phidias's expertise in stone buildings. Whether you have a new-build which needs cladding with the stone of your choice, or you are building a new house with stone blocks, Phidias will be able to help and advise you on the right type of stone for your project, explaining the properties and suitability of each type of stone.
