Replacement of old stone architectural features with cast stone replicas

Procter Cast Stone

As part of the renovation of this attractive period property, we supplied cast stone copings and corbel blocks to replace the original natural stone features which had suffered deterioration over time. There were several challenges to this project, including the need for very accurate colour matching, plus the need to include 'cast-in' lifting inserts to the some of the products due to their considerable weight.

Cast Stone Cills New Premier Inn Hotel

Procter Cast Stone

Procter has supplied cast stone cills and band course for the construction of a new hotel in central London. Over 50 tonnes of cast stone cills and band course products were supplied, with Procter working closely with the architect and attending site meetings to ensure that the bespoke units were manufactured as economically as possible, and that the quality was not compromised though careless site handling and installation. In addition to advising on the manufacturability of the design features, Procter Cast Stone worked closely with the architect to ensure that the cast stone units mounted correctly on the support bracketry.

Cast Stone for New Majestic Wine Retails Unit

Procter Cast Stone

A new build retail premises for Majestic Wine, which used cast stone walling, quoins and copings, and these to contrast with red brick to create a striking and contemporary piece of architecture. Some of the cast stone products were rebated to create a shadow-gap effect. Working together, Procter Cast Stone and the architect developed a scheme that achieved the desired distinctive visual appearance alongside brickwork and glass, but with cast stone units that were as economical to manufacture as possible. This enabled the architect to meet the client's brief while maintaining tight control over budgets.

Replicates of post office stone on new house build

Procter Cast Stone

We originally got the inquiry for cast stone product for this new property through an exhibition stand we had at the National Self Build and Renovation Centre in Swindon, and were then subsequently commissioned to go ahead with the project in August 2010. The client required window surrounds, quoins, ashlar walling blocks, copings and a dentil course around the top of the building. One special requirement was that the stone had to replicate that of an post office in Whitney, Oxfordshire, which the architectural design of the new building would also broadly follow.

Procter Manufacture and Installation of Cast Stone Replica Balustrade to Grade 1 Listed Hous

Procter Cast Stone

This was a relatively simply project for us replacing the original, but time-worn balustrade with cast stone replicas on this important grade 1 listed building. As can be seen in the photos, the cast stone replicas do look overly 'new'. However, and in the same way as they would if more expensive natural stone had been used, they will soon weather and take on a similar appearance to the adjacent originals.

Stone Barn Retained as part of ‘Invisible House’

Helifix

Channel 4’s ‘Grand Designs’ featured Helifix masonry repair techniques to retain a 300 year old dilapidated stone barn. Built with rubble-filled Cotswold Stone walls, some 600mm thick, the unstable barn needed to be consolidated and strengthened to protect it during construction of the new subterranean house. The walls were consolidated by using 140 grouted CemTies. The installation of 340m of Helibeam reinforcement then created ring-beams around the structure. Existing window and door openings were temporarily blocked to permit continuity of the HeliBars, which were later cut and embedded into the reveals.

Two New Ludgate Portland Stone Feature Wall

stoneCIRCLE

The main reception for Two New Ludgate has an 8m high and 30m long curved feature wall in Portland Stone. Putney & Wood, the stone contractor’s in-house designers used CAD to detail every stone before creating a visual representation of each elevation. A 3D model was then created as a final check before production. stoneCIRCLE was one of 3 firms involved in manufacturing the frieze and they used the latest CNC processing machinery alongside 3D modeling to ensure pinpoint accuracy. The stones had to be sanded by hand after manufacture to remove machining marks.

Stone cottage structurally secured without disruption

Helifix

A 150yr old stone built cottage had developed structural faults. The archway entrance was failing due to inadequate support causing distortion of the arch pier, the front door to jam and masonry cracking in the archway walls. HD BowTies were installed through the front elevation stonework and the first two floor joists to provide lateral restraint. HeliBars were bonded into the mortar beds to create masonry beams which assisted in distributing the loads above the arch. Crack stitching was undertaken to repair and stabilise the archway wall which was also secured to the internal cross wall with grouted CemTies.

Iraq, Afghanistan & Gulf War Memorial - Portland Stone
