Review Comments
We do not recommend Edinburgh Stone Repair. We hired them to repoint the gable end of our stone cottage where we observed various worrying things, which when we questioned we were met with rudeness and verbal abuse. They stormed off site leaving the job unfinished.

We contacted the Scottish Lime Center Trust and showed photographs of the work; they confirmed it did not look like best practices had been followed.. Examples include: using power tools (resulting in some stones being damaged with cut marks or their edges squared off), the existing joints only raked out by 10mm in many places (despite some joints having a width of 20mm+), pointing onto dusty dry walls, the lime not being compacted into the joints, and the pointing not always being sufficiently covered or the hessian damped down (the weather was 20 degrees with direct sun). A final gripe was their lack of respect for our property and garden - no areas were covered or protected and so we had lime splattered all over our new paths, bin store, plants and grass. Waste lime water was even dumped into our plants.

Whilst I appreciate it can be hard to have your work questioned on site, ultimately Steven agreed with my observations, and indeed in one instance chose to ask his masons to rake out the fresh lime and start again. I was polite throughout the entire job, yet Steven stood in my garden shouting “you know absolutely nothing”, “you must have OCD or somethin’”, and “you’re off your heed”. I was home alone with my young children and I was made to feel scared and threatened. So from both a quality of workmanship and from a professionalism point of view - I do not recommend Steven or his team.

Moderator Response
BUSINESS RESPONSE: Dear Jamie,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, though I find it necessary to respectfully clarify several points.

Firstly, I am disappointed by this review as it does not reflect the full context of the situation. We carried out all works with diligence and in line with standard lime pointing practices, including raking out joints, cleaning down, and repointing with NHL lime mortar. Throughout the project, we also provided photographic documentation to support the steps we had taken.

Despite our efforts, we were not allowed to complete the job, and only received partial payment for the work carried out. We even absorbed the cost of materials that had to be cancelled due to the dispute. While I understand that differing opinions can arise on construction methods, especially with heritage materials, we did everything we could to reassure you and address your concerns. I even instructed our team to re-rake and reapply mortar in one area as a gesture of good faith.

It is unfortunate that a disagreement over methodology—while you were away from the property—has resulted in a public review which I feel is unfair and damaging to my business. We strive to treat all clients with respect, and I regret that communication broke down at the end of the project.

Nonetheless, I acknowledge your perspective and will take your feedback seriously to ensure future clients continue to receive professional and respectful service.

The mullions on our 150 year old bay window had cracked and were laminating. Steven and his team provided an excellent service. Not only is the end result very good, but they cleaned up thoroughly afterwards and, once the scaffolding was down, cleaned the windows. Highly recommended

Contacted Steven & his team regarding a leak in my flat and he responded very quickly, even whilst he was on holiday took all the details of the location and the problem. He came out within a week and all repairs done. Will definitely use his services again & highly recommend him

Steven and the team did two jobs for us, both excellent. Clear and comprehensive quotes prior to starting the work. The team arrived on time, worked hard, were very tidy, and completed on schedule. All members of the team were good-humoured and were clearly skilled craftspeople. Photo of the first job included, where the team carved and replaced the sandstone window arch.

While they were carrying out the first job, we asked if they could check out some rain damage at the back of the house. This Steven did, and agreed to carry out a drain repair, cleaning and repointing of the stone wall. The back of the house is difficult to access. The team carried their equipment and heavy bags of lime mortar from van through two gardens to the wall, and then back again at the end of the day. That deserves an extra star, though we’re limited to five! Extra shout out to Darren’s superb playlist :)

We will definitely contact the team again for work on our house and happily recommend Edinburgh Stone Repair.

Significant stone repairs were required to the front of my tenement building. Steven made the whole process as painless as possible, had great communications throughout and offered lots of pragmatic advice. Work was done to a good standard and for a reasonable price.

Steven was friendly and efficient. We had the grouting replaced on our entrance bridge to our tenement in the New Town. Shortly after there was some leakage following a heavy rain which Steven responded to very quickly coming and fixing it. I would happily use them again.
