Hilary Dickinson

Bardon Mill, Northumberland

 

“After completing our ‘Award Winning’ development in the Northumberland National Park the major comment we heard wherever we went was " who built your walls...they are amazing!"

 

These stunning structures were all down to the craftsmanship of Laurie, who put his heart and soul into the project” Hilary Dickinson

David Haffey

“Thank you to you and your colleagues for doing such a great job at Thorngrafton.

 

The quality of the new dry stone walls is excellent and many people visiting the house have commented on how good they look and how well they blend with others in the vicinity. It was good to be able to discuss with you the type of wall that we wanted and you interpreted our wishes perfectly.

 

I was also impressed with your willingness to fit us into your work programme and to get the job done within the timescale that we needed.

 

I would happily recommend you to anyone wanting a really high standard of walling at a competitive price”

"Laurie is unique. He combines stone masonry at the highest level with an artistic flair.

 

The end result can only be described as stunning. It is through Laurie's passion, attention to detail, skill and desire to please that he can create such masterpieces.

 

He is also one of the most pleasant people that has ever worked for me"

"Although I had sourced some pretty irregular shaped stone, Lambeth Stonework
used it to craft an impressive pillar in our living room, that is a joy to look at every day”

“Laurie has recently completed a walling project for us. He is imaginative, tidy, considerate and hard-working. Most importantly he is a skilled craftsman, whose work is to a high standard.

 

Laurie helped us with planning and designing the project, and arranging for the appropriate amount of stone to be delivered.

 

He arrived when he said he would and completed the project on time. I would be delighted to recommend him”

“Laurie has worked on our continuing garden project, during which time he has had an exemplary work ethic with exceptional attention to detail.

 

He has the ability to transcribe your ideas into reality, with innovative ideas of his own. He is friendly and easy to work with, we can't recommend him highly enough”

Jim & Alice

Ainstable, Eden Valley

 

With his artistic eye for detail, Laurie has transformed our upper garden space from an eyesore to a warm,inviting place to enjoy.

 

The great thing about the build was that all the stone was reclaimed from the garden.If I was given 10 years, I couldn't achieve what Laurie did in a matter of weeks.

 

I could not recommend Laurie highly enough to anyone looking to start any stonework project.

Laurie’s brief was to build a 6’high X 33mtrs long retaining wall to separate my garden from

a field housing livestock. It had to be strong, functional and also decorative as the wall was

to form the background to my garden.

 

The result fulfilled all my requirements and the wall is an absolutely stunning and much

admired backcloth to the garden.

The pattern and coursing of the stonework is superb and the handling of the stone is masterly.

 

Laurie works with the sensitivity of an artist and the wall he built for me is a work of art. It

was a privilege and pleasure to employ Laurie.
