Stone Masonry in Barry & the Vale of Glamorgan

At Elite Construction, we pride ourselves on delivering high-quality stone masonry services throughout Barry and the wider Vale of Glamorgan. As a veteran builder specialising in hard landscaping, we’ve developed a reputation for excellence, reliability, and exceptional craftsmanship.

Our NVQ qualified team never relies on subcontractors, so you can trust us to handle your project with the utmost care and expertise. Whether we’re constructing stone walling, repointing brickwork, or undertaking stone restoration on a heritage property, we stand by our work, offering a comprehensive 1-year workmanship guarantee on the finished feature.

What Makes Our Masons Special?

Elite’s expert masons look to prioritise local materials, like limestone and Pennant sandstone, known for their durability and aesthetic appeal. Stone masonry involves carefully selecting, shaping, and laying stones using traditional tools, ensuring tight, interlocking joints that enhance structural integrity; for this reason, not every general builder is capable of delivering it to the standards we’ve come to be associated with.

A prominent example is dry stone walling, popular in rural Barry, which requires no mortar, and instead relies on precise stone placement. To preserve the character of these features, it’s vital to draw on sophisticated restoration techniques, the likes of which you can learn about on our dedicated restoration work page.
