Professional and high quality Stonemasonry
Hi, I’m Joseph Franklin-Willis. I grew up in Box, Wiltshire and I'm still enjoying the countryside. As a young adult I studied Stonemasonry at the world-renowned Bath College and completed an advanced Level 3 course in 2020 whilst in apprenticeship with local Master Mason Niall Hemmings. Working closely with other mentors and masters of the trade I have learned and practised traditional and modern techniques to stone carving, fixing and everything in between. I have worked on a wide variety of projects on my own and also with a number of different teams; I'm now lucky enough to run my own little established business. I’m a fully-certified professional ready to tackle anything from creative construction and walling projects to minor repair jobs.
Stone as a building material is not only amazingly durable but also an eco friendly option. It is a sustainable building material and I pride myself on using recycled or upcycled stones where possible. Stone also easily adds value and class to any home or room when fitted by an expert. I’m fuelled by my commitment to excellence and go the extra mile to make sure clients are fully satisfied with my work. Get in touch with me today for a free estimation.
