An excellent job of repoining a garden wall usig lime mortar - he was happy to use the mortar we had ordered to get the look we wanted. He came on several days to bring the wall up to a high standard that now sets off everything round it.

Prompt, friendly service with trained stonemasons taking pride in their job. Summary of each day's work provided and checked that all was satisfactory. Jimmy also often revisits after day has ended to check all is good.

I highly recommend JMS Stonemason. My front garden wall has been transformed by Jimmy and his team, using the original stone.
Great communication throughout from start to finish. Very reasonable price and extremely tidy.
I will certainly use JMS Stonemason again without any hesitation as I believe a genuine trusted trader.

I telephoned JMS to ascertain if they were interested in charging out a small job. They responded promptly, visited the site and agreed to do the work, very promptly.
The work was carried out extremely competently. Mr Summers and his son are superb tradesman.

Jimmy and his team were excellent. James worked constantly cleaning off mortar from bricks to allow them to be used again to rebuild our dividing garden wall. They worked whenever the weather allowed over winter and were understanding of delays brought about by the requirement to clear massive tree roots that had grown around the old foundation.
Jimmy is very friendly and with his years of experience he is extremely knowledgeable and entirely trustworthy. I would have no hesitation in recommending JMS.

Jimmy and his team did a very good job replacing the mullions on my bay window, building a new path and wall underneath it and cleaning up the sandstone surrounds. They kept me informed about what they were doing and when they would be working and were very reliable and hard-working. I am very happy with the finished job and wouldn't hesitate to recommend JMS Stonemasons or use them again.

We were in need of a stonemason to carry out communal stonework repairs to our building (three flats). JMS Stonemason was selected following a recommendation from a neighbour and checking out reviews of his work on Edinburgh Trusted Trader website.
The masonry work (carved stone and inserts) was carried out to a high standard: started when planned and completed within the time period suggested by Mr Summers at the start. The final invoice matched the original estimate.
Mr Summers (Jimmy) was very easy to get along with and obliging.
The owners of the property are all happy with the work carried out and have agreed that in the event of needing the services of a stonemason again we would happily re-employ JMS Stonemason.

We had used JMS once before and invited them back on the strength and standard of the original work. Once again, they were prompt and courteous and did an excellent job. We also felt they offered much better value compared to other quotes we got. We would have no hesitation in recommending them again.

JMS repaired the front elevation of our main door tenement flat improving significantly its appearance. They also, repaired the brickwork of the three front walls which had been badly damaged by Ivy intrusion with attractive pointing. In addition, a roofing skew was replaced. The three member team were very discrete and industrious always leaving the work area clean and tidy at the days' send. We are delighted with the work and feel lucky to have found a local honest and diligent expert stonemason team. We highly recommend them.
