James completed a complex facade renovation project on a listed building to a very high standard. His communication was excellent from start to finish. James and his team beat all expectation. They made very difficult works look very easy. I have recommended James and his team ever since and will continue to do so.

We had an excellent experience working with Jimmy. We had multiple pieces of work happening at once and he was flexible throughout when it came to scheduling everyone. His communication is excellent, we always knew what was going on and when. The work was completed to a high standard at a reasonable price, and the site was left clean and tidy afterwards. Overall, would definitely recommend and will be working with him in future!

From the outset of repointing our garden wall JMS Stonemasons were well organised, arrived promptly and gave verbal quote, few days later a written one which was very reasonable. On starting the job they arrived on time, worked all day apart from lunch and coffee breaks, and cleaned up everything when job completed.
Nice job John and Calum, we will certainly recommend you to anyone who requires your skills.

We have used JMS stonemason for a variety of stone related jobs at our property. we have been using him for nearly twenty years. Recently he has carried out work which has again been to an exceptional standard. He is a very good communicator and responds quickly to any questions. We have found him to be 100% trustworthy, showing up when he says he will and working till the job is complete. His workers are courteous, polite and extremely hard working. They work tirelessly through difficult circumstances. It is great to see Jimmy back to full working capacity after a time of illness. I would not hesitate to recommend JMS stonemason for any stone related project. Jimmy will give you a great service, he has a wealth of experience, he does not take short cuts and does things properly. His quote is what you pay, no hidden costs or surprises will come at a later date. A first class company. Highly recommended.

Jimmy advised on priorities for repair of stonework on our 150 year old property, and explained options. Once we'd agreed work, he was great at keeping in touch and letting us know what work he would be doing and when. We appreciated this as we often work from home and have a dog!

The quality of the materials and standard of the work were excellent. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Jimmy and his team. They completed the work in good time and have been very reliable.

Work involved pointing and repairing one high and one low stone garden wall and replacing the step on a garden path. Jimmy of JMS turned up on time to estimate job, returned a reasonable estimate, promptly, came and did job as per estimate, all in timely, competent and friendly manner. He and his son Jamie and colleague Michael were always pleasant to talk to. Happy with work and delighted to get job done. JMS were straightforward to deal with. Would employ again and also recommend.

Needed some slabs put down in the garden and also demolishing of a wall and rebuilding with original stonework a window sill, step keeping with the original character and type of stone. Very professional and whilst we were away for the week Jimmy kept in contact with us giving progress updates and facetimed us part way through work. Before work started Jimmy sent us many examples of stone type and colour so we could make a decision. The lads that did the work were very polite and courteous and even removed rubbish from a previous tradey.

The finished work is exactly what we were after and they worked around another tradey that was fitting windows/doors no problems.

Will definitely be using Jimmy’s services again. I knew I had made the right decision using this firm to carry out repairs to my front bay window. Jimmy was professional and clearly explained at all times how he was going to fix my deteriorating stonework and even fixed a small hole in my kitchen window along with carrying out some pointing. Communication from start to finish was excellent. Couldn’t have asked for more from a family run business that takes pride in what they do. I will be recommending Jimmy and his team to friends and family in the future.

Jimmy was one of only three stonemasons who gave us a quote given the scale of the job.
What can I say, we landed on our feet going with this professional family business.
The guys are clearly very knowledgable stonemasons and excellent problem solvers.
We're glad we now have go to stonemasons for the remaining jobs we need done on our house. Thanks again guys, could not be happier.

We have used JMS Stonemason several times over the years and have always been very satisfied with the speed and quality of work carried out. The range of work JMS has carried out for us includes the complete rebuild of one of our stone chimneys, replacement of a window jamb (including hand tooling to match adjacent stones) and repointing the back wall of our house.
JMS has always turned up when agreed and completed the work in a timely manner. We have no hesitation in recommending JMS Stonemason as a trustworthy trader.

I have used JMS for a number of jobs on my flat and have always been happy with their work. This time Jimmy’s son Jamie was repointing my basement walls which were in poor condition. Jimmy quoted for all the work so I knew the full cost beforehand. Jamie arrived promptly each morning and explained what was going on each day. I would highly recommend JMS and hope to use them again in the future.

I have used this trader before as have all my neighbours if they need to have stonework done on the buildings. He assesses the work properly, gives a full estimate and does an excellent job.

Jimmy and his team repointed our garden wall. As so many others have noted, he / they were reliable, courteous, trustworthy and friendly. Best of all. he did a tremendous job which has already been noticed and admired by others. I am extremely pleased to have discovered Jimmy and cannot recommend him too highly. Needless to say he is always very busy and may not be able to fit you in immediately. However, if you can afford to wait for him, then do. It will be worth it!!

We are delighted with the new coping stones and the re-pointing of our wall, which has totally transformed it. Jimmy and crew were prompt, mannerable, efficient and kept us informed of the process and the work. They were also very tidy during the work and cleaned up each day. We have no hesitation in recommending them.
