Stone Repair Edinburgh
Lithomex Stone Repair Specialists
PSZ Stonemasonry offers high-quality stone repair services in Edinburgh using Lithomex stone repair, a colour-matched, lime-based mortar. Ideal for sandstone, Lithomex restores surface damage while preserving breathability and structural integrity.
When to Choose Stone Repair Over Replacement
- Stone repair (Lithomex): Best for surface erosion, spalling, or decorative damage where full structural replacement isn’t necessary.
- Part indenting: Replace damaged sections with stone infill—cost-effective and durable while matching aesthetics.
- Full stone replacement: Needed for structural elements like lintels, sills, or severely cracked blocks for long-term stability.
Our Lithomex Repair Process
- Assessment: Identify damage depth and restoration method.
- Preparation: Remove loose stone and dampen the substrate.
- Colour Match: Use Lithomex sample panel for precise shade blending.
- Layered Application: Build up the repair in stages (8–40 mm per layer).
- Shaping & Sculpting: Sculpt, tool, and age the repair to match surrounding stone.
- Finishing: Rub down and weather-match for near-invisible integration.
Benefits of Lithomex Repair
