With the ever increasing price of quarried stone, repairing the existing stone masonry has become a cheaper option, opposed to replacing the damaged stone work.
By using a vast array of coloured and textured masonry resins and reconstituated stone mix's, it is possible to get a good match so the repair or repairs blend in to the existing masonry, because it is a mix (which is some time's called plastic repair mix), by using a build up process it is possible to successfully repair the most intricate of carved masonry.
Using non rust metals, such as copper, and brass, to reinforce the repair.
The trick to a good colour match is knowing what the colour of the repair will be when it has fully dried out.
