Restoring Stone Buildings With Traditional Stonework
Throughout the Northeast, old stone homes and stone barns are a beautiful and common sight. Sadly, many old stone buildings are falling apart, and without a little stone restoration work may someday crumble and fall completely.
Fifth Park Stoneworks does comprehensive stone restoration and stone repointing for homes, barns, and small & large structures throughout the Northeast and Midatlantic.
We also have experience using lime-based mortars (an older and fully natural type of mortar), traditional trowel techniques, and other truly historic preservation techniques for old buildings and homes.
We love to help homeowners like you preserve a piece of history!
How We Restore Stone Masonry
Restoring old stone barns can be a challenging and rewarding experience, but we believe the many benefits to restoring old stone barns make the effort well worthwhile.
You’re preserving a piece of history and creating a unique and beautiful structure along the way!
Assessment
Restoration of stone barns with Fifth Park usually begins with an assessment of the structure. This includes identifying the type and condition of the stones, the condition of the mortar, and the condition of any wood or metal components. If any of these structural components need to be replaced or repaired, we can partner with or recommend specialized contractors that will work alongside our team of stone experts in the restoration process.
Restoration
Once the assessment is complete, the stone restoration process can begin. Restoring your stone usually begins by removing the deteriorating mortar or stucco covering your original stonework. We use gentle chiseling, sandblasting, and restorative washing to clean and prepare your stone for new grout that will solidify your stone walls for hundreds of years to come. It's important to us that we use the same type of stone as the original structure was made from when replacing stones, when possible, and to use a mortar that is compatible with these stones and blends with your existing masonry work.
Sealers
We also do sealers, when appropriate, to create a water-proof coating and make your stonework last even longer.
We pride ourselves in a commitment to traditional, high-quality stonework techniques when it comes to restoring old barns and homes.
