Modern construction has evolved rapidly in recent years, with architects and builders embracing innovative materials to enhance both the look and durability of their projects. Among these materials, reconstructed and cast stone features have become increasingly popular, bringing style and architectural detailing to homes and commercial properties alike. From porticos and window heads to sills and string courses, cast stone now plays a prominent role in construction across the country.
The Problem with Cast Stone Damage
While reconstructed stone offers beauty and strength, it also comes with a challenge: it’s vulnerable to damage if not handled and stored with care. Chips, cracks, and other defects can occur before, during, or even after installation.
Traditionally, when these issues arose, the options were limited:
- Poor repairs: Many attempted stone repairs left unsightly finishes that did not blend with the surrounding stone.
- Full replacements: Often, the only alternative was to remove and replace the damaged piece entirely. Not only is this time-consuming and costly, but achieving a perfect colour and mortar match can also be extremely difficult.
The result? Frustration for builders, developers, and homeowners—alongside higher costs and delays.
