JMS Stonemason was engaged by me for a series of small but relatively difficult jobs.
A concrete step required to be ground down to a specific measurement in order to house a customised brass bullnose. This was undertaken with great precision and the bullnose slotted exactly into place.
Other tasks involved deconstructing an old Victorian midden wall where plant roots had disrupted the structure and rebuilding it. Repointing of an old garden wall was undertaken as well as repointing the side of the garage where water ingress was apparent.
All of these tasks were completed to the highest standard and the results are excellent. The stonemason and apprentice paid great attention to the detail of the work and kept the locus neat and tidy.
They were well mannered and courteous at all times. They obviously take great pride in what they do and as a result i have had a first class job done.

Jim Summers and his boys were reliable, competitive, pleasant to do business with and delivered work of the highest quality, offering alternative solutions at different price levels. I have no hesitation in recommending this craftsman to anyone else needing stone masonry work done.

Jimmy and his team have carried out a number of projects for us over several years - from picking and pointing walls to rebuilding an entire chimney stack. We have nothing but praise for his manner, professional approach, quality of workmanship, attention to detail and indeed every aspect of providing his services. He was particularly helpful in sourcing matching stone to suit our property. I have appreciated the effort he has gone to when replacing pointing to ensure that it is as neat and trim as possible. This is in marked contrast to the efforts of others to be seen around Edinburgh! We have no hesitation in recommending him and have done so to many friends and neighbours.

Jimmy Summers has done excellent work on our house, replacing front path and steps using new natural sandstone and also replacing a window mullion and sill in concrete. In both cases the products used had to be cut and finished to exacting standards, and the work was carried out in an exemplary way. We are very happy with the end result, and with the efficiency and courtesy of the masons, and would recommend this firm without hesitation.

I am delighted with the quality of the work. The finish is of a very high standard. Some quite large pieces of sandstone had to be cut out and replaced. The team were very professional and left everything clean and tidy.
I would most definitely recommend JMS stonemasons.

They were helpful and polite and left everything tidy.

I have used JMS a couple of times for different projects and always been very happy with the work carried out and the service.
The project involved; removing a section of supporting wall, installing a lintel, steel column, strapping and general repair of the surrounding brickwork. Additionally I needed to open an old fireplace which required "squaring off" and lined with mortar/cement.
Jimmy and his team are very knowledgable, efficient and friendly to work with. I would happily use and recommend JMS for any future projects.

He responds quickly, is very experienced and knowledgeable, and is happy to discuss what the options for our stonework repairs are.
He is just what you want from a local tradesman.
