About Us
Constructing, restoring and conserving stonemasonry throughout the Scottish Highlands. Traditional craft skills meeting modern standards of precision and care.
Specialist traditional stonemasonry
Highland Building and Conservation specialises in traditional stonemasonry and lime work across the Scottish Highlands. With deep knowledge of heritage construction methods and materials, we work on everything from sensitive restoration of listed buildings to new stonework that respects Scotland's architectural legacy. Our projects range from repairing centuries-old façades and replacing eroded carved detail, to building drystone walls and creating contemporary structures clad with reclaimed Highland rubble. Whether it's a scheduled monument or a modern home, we approach every job with the same commitment to craft and an understanding of how traditional buildings work.
Our expertise covers stone cleaning and conservation repair, lime harling and pointing, and the careful removal of inappropriate modern materials that damage historic fabric. We use specialist equipment like DOFF steam cleaning systems alongside traditional hand skills, always working sympathetically with soft sandstones and vulnerable surfaces. We understand that heritage buildings need breathable finishes and materials that move with the structure, which is why we work with lime mortars, natural renders, and mineral paints. From multi-month projects on landmark Highland hotels to intricate carved stone repairs in coastal villages, we combine old-world masonry knowledge with the precision and reliability modern clients expect.
