BKS Stonemasons: Heritage Restoration Experts in Melbourne

Melbourne’s heritage buildings are more than just bricks and mortar — they are timeless landmarks that tell the story of the city’s rich history, culture, and identity. From grand public buildings and historic churches to charming period homes and memorials, these structures deserve the highest standard of care and preservation. BKS Stonemasons is proud to offer expert heritage restoration services in Melbourne, helping to safeguard these irreplaceable assets for future generations.

Comprehensive Heritage Stone Restoration

At BKS Stonemasons, we specialise in the meticulous restoration and conservation of stonework on heritage-listed and historically significant buildings. Our experienced team combines traditional stonemasonry techniques with modern tools and technologies to deliver restoration work that is authentic, durable, and sensitive to the original design.

Our services include:

• Stone replacement and matching: We source or custom-cut stone that matches the original in texture, colour, and composition, ensuring seamless repairs.
• Façade and feature restoration: We restore stone facades, columns, arches, cornices, and decorative elements with precision.
• Repointing of mortar joints: We use lime-based or heritage-appropriate mortars to repoint joints, strengthening structures and preventing moisture ingress.
• Conservation cleaning: Using gentle, non-invasive cleaning techniques, we remove dirt, pollutants, moss, and lichen without harming delicate stone surfaces.
• Structural repairs and reinforcement: We stabilise weakened stonework and provide structural solutions that preserve both integrity and appearance.

Respect for Heritage and Authenticity

Heritage restoration demands a sensitive approach that respects the architectural style, materials, and craftsmanship of the original builders. At BKS Stonemasons, we work closely with heritage consultants, architects, and local councils to ensure that every project complies with conservation requirements and planning controls.

We understand that every building has its own story. That’s why we tailor our restoration methods to suit the specific stone type, historical period, and architectural detail of each structure. Our work is always guided by the principles of minimum intervention and maximum preservation, ensuring the building’s character is retained.
