MALLORCA STONE HOUSE CO.

MALLORCA STONE HOUSE Co.
Traditional stone work, lime mortars and techniques for vernacular building conservation.
We build, restore and repair traditional Mallorcan buildings using materials and techniques sympathetic to the original construction. Locally-sourced lime for bespoke mortars, local quarry stone, marès sandstone, traditional aggregates and finishes are selected and worked to belong to the building rather than stand apart from it.Good restoration should settle quietly into what is already there. Wherever possible, we preserve original material, reproduce existing textures and accept the irregularities that give your building its distinct character.The best repair is often the one you do not notice.
We also have extensive experience in correcting inappropriate previous repairs, particularly where Portland cement has been used on traditionally lime-built structures. These materials can be carefully removed and replaced with compatible lime-based mortars and finishes, restoring the intended behaviour and appearance of the original construction.
