About
A practice built around the workshop.
Founded in 2019, JB Stonework & Restoration has grown year by year into a trusted name in the restoration, conservation and construction of stone properties across the UK.
We specialise in listed buildings and heritage properties, and we approach every task the same way: with precision, respect for tradition and a focus on the quality of the result. From cathedrals to country estates, and historic landmarks to private residences, we take on projects of all sizes.
Our reputation is built on meticulous attention to detail and on blending traditional techniques with modern precision. As we grow, the mission stays the same: to preserve the craft of stonemasonry and make sure the legacy of the past endures for future generations.

The founder
Jamie's story.
"I first stepped onto a building site at 15. At 16 I moved to London to learn stonemasonry properly, working on some of the UK's most prestigious projects, and by 17 I was carving stone. The skills I learned then are the foundation of how we work today."
"Now we have a team of like-minded masons who share the same vision: top-quality work, delivered with dedication, precision and care. I'm personally involved in every project, and I'm proud of what we're building."
Jamie's story was featured in Stone Specialist, Winter 2024.
