Our team were recently out in Twickenham, carrying out routine inspection and maintenance work on the roof of Rambert School.

The guys did an excellent job, and with so many planes coming from Heathrow Airport overhead, there was plenty to keep them entertained throughout the day!

Regular maintenance work like this prevents surface level issues developing into bigger problems, while also ensuring our nation's young minds continue to benefit from its oldest buildings.

Why is lightning protection so important?

Braving the elements in an ever-evolving climate can leave our nation’s oldest buildings at risk of incurring major weather damages.

Regular lightning protection maintenance massively reduces the risk and impact of unnecessary damages and goes a long way in ensuring effective preservation for years to come.

It’s incredibly rewarding to once again receive both Safe Contractor, and CHAS accreditations, which were awarded in recognition of the high standards of practice we employ in our daily operations.

At Stone Technical Services, we’re incredibly proud of the part we play in the preservation and restoration of our nation’s heritage sites, and accolades like these are a great reminder of the quality we provide to each and every job.

With government targets to build around 1.5 million new homes currently falling behind schedule, could some of the UK’s most historic buildings be about to receive a new lease of life?

The introduction of a “Reuse First Act” for historic buildings is currently being floated within parliament and would see a large number of listed buildings, churches and monuments which have fallen into disrepair being freshly renovated to provide around 670,000 new homes.

It’s amazing to see the consideration of a long-term future for some of our oldest buildings, and developments like these only strengthen our goal of restoring and preserving our national heritage landmarks for future generations to enjoy.

We love a job with a view!

Our team had a great view for miles around recently, as they carried out building surveys around the Newcastle University campus.

The guys did an amazing job, and it’s incredibly rewarding to be able to preserve historic buildings that are still used by countless people every single day!
