Understanding Bath Stone and Its Unique Qualities
Bath stone is a prized natural limestone that gives historic homes their characteristic elegance and warmth. However, due to its natural composition, Bath stone can be vulnerable to weathering, pollution, and biological growth over time. Left untreated, this deterioration can compromise the structural integrity and aesthetics of your home. As specialists in Bath stone, we offer services tailored to the unique needs of this material, preserving its beauty and safeguarding your property’s heritage.
Bath Stone Repair and Replacement Services
For homes with Bath stone structures, ensuring timely repair and, if necessary, stone replacement is crucial to prevent further damage. Our skilled stonemasons at White Acre Stonemasonry use traditional techniques alongside modern tools to deliver lasting repairs that blend seamlessly with your property’s original stonework. From patching cracks and filling chips to addressing larger structural issues, we provide a comprehensive stone repair service that respects your building’s architectural heritage.
In cases where sections of Bath stone are beyond repair, our team specialises in careful stone replacement. We meticulously source matching stone to ensure that any replacements harmonise with the rest of the building, preserving both its structural strength and historical value.

Specialist Bay Window and Chimney Repair
Bay windows are iconic features of many period homes but are often prone to erosion and damage. Our bay window repair service is designed to restore these features, ensuring their durability while maintaining their charm. Similarly, chimney repair is essential for homes with Bath stone chimneys, which can suffer from exposure to the elements. Our stonemasons are skilled in addressing the unique needs of both bay windows and chimneys, protecting these valuable architectural elements from further wear.
Expert Stone Cleaning Services: ThermaTech and Nebulous Water Spray
Cleaning Bath stone requires a delicate approach to remove dirt, pollution, and biological growth without damaging the stone’s surface. White Acre Stonemasonry uses two advanced cleaning methods: ThermaTech and Nebulous Water Spray Cleaning.
ThermaTech Cleaning: ThermaTech is a gentle but highly effective cleaning system that uses heated water to remove grime, algae, and lichen from stone surfaces. By applying water at a low-pressure, high-temperature setting, it cleans deeply while preserving the stone’s integrity. This method is particularly beneficial for exterior surfaces, providing thorough cleaning without the need for harsh chemicals.
Nebulous Water Spray Cleaning: For more sensitive stone surfaces or delicate features, our Nebulous Water Spray system offers a milder alternative. This process releases a fine mist of water over an extended period, loosening dirt and stains slowly and safely. The controlled application prevents the stone from becoming saturated, avoiding potential damage to the stone’s natural structure.
Both of these cleaning techniques are suited to Bath stone, ensuring that your property’s façade, walls, and decorative details are restored to their original beauty.
