253 Stone, Paving and Concrete Professionals

What services can concrete specialists, pavers or stonemasons offer me?

A paving expert can design, plan and build a wide range of projects, from paths and walkways to suntrap spots such as courtyards. There is a huge range of materials, colours and patterns out there, so why not contact some pavers and stone experts to see the options they provide. Pavers or concrete specialists will be able to recommend the most appropriate paving stones to suit your property, local climate and street style. That might be a uniform stretch of concrete paving slabs, something more textured such as patterned concrete, a classic herringbone formation of clay paving bricks, or Indian sandstone, which will acquire weathered character as the years pass. The right stone or paving expert can also help you with concrete repair issues involving anything from walls to lintels, while a stone cleaner might be just the man to give your period property a facelift.

As well as pavers, stone specialists can supply natural stone wall cladding, provide stone indoor flooring and stonemasons could even handcraft stone fireplaces, create worktops or sinks in stone and design beautiful stone architectural pieces for your home. You can find all sorts of stone, concrete and paving experts with Houzz, so if you fancy some paving indoors or outdoors, or you’d like some stylish stone added to your home, this is the place to find an expert for the job.
