Stonemasons working in Kingscourt and the surrounding Cavan countryside. Stone wall repair, lime repointing and new walls, built to last by experienced hands.
L&A Building Experts are stonemasons based in Navan, a short run from Kingscourt in south Co Cavan. It's a town long associated with the brick and clay works, set in good farming country with plenty of stone boundary walls and period houses around it. We bring 20+ years of traditional stone work to the area, fully insured, with no shortcuts.
Out around Kingscourt the work is largely rural: stone boundary walls between fields and holdings, walls fronting older houses, and repairs to farm buildings that have weathered over the decades. Where walls have slumped or mortar has crumbled, we take the time to do it properly rather than patch over the problem.
We repoint in lime mortar and use traditional methods throughout, which suits the older stone in this part of Cavan and keeps walls standing for the long haul.
