Services
We build and re-point all stone and flint work. We re-build walls using knapped flint and also field flint to match the different types of old flint walls that we come across. We can match the colour of the original pointing to these walls using natural earth pigments (for example, black pointing using vine black earth pigment to darken the colour as shown in image one below, versus image two which shows a natural lime mortar).
Point Builders is passionate about training the next generation of skilled tradesmen, and therefore we encourage applications by dedicated individuals with a willingness to learn building trades.
Within our team, we have experts in pointing, plastering, rendering, roofing and lime mortar works, and by working alongside them, you will be taught these skills and given the opportunity to practice and become a skilled craftsmen in these fields, as well as gaining daily experience in a range of modern trades, from brick laying, plumbing and electrics to house-builds, extensions, conservation and renovation of all kinds.

On Point Builders were hired to build a new dwelling... I would highly recommend them! They stuck to the timescale and quote. Having dealt with several builders in the past this is hard to find and get right. As of the workmanship i would give them a 10/10. Good job!
