Stone Surface Dressings in Northumberland

At Hutton Stone we pride ourselves in paying extra attention to the dressing techniques used by those who have gone before us. If you want to match something in a restoration project or you want your new build project to sit perfectly within a traditional environment we are here to help! Surface dressings have changed a lot over the years. Once upon a time they were applied as simply the quickest cheapest method of getting a surface flat or to provide a good key for lime render to attach to. As fashions in architecture changed over the years these surface dressings became more formal and refined so for example a broached quoin dressed in the 1700’s will be much more coarser than one dressed in the late 1800’s.
