A bit of a dreich day on site, but the work carries on. 🌧️🔨 🌺

Today we were back at one of our barn conversion projects, pushing on with the stonework and plastering despite the weather. Every stage brings this old building one step closer to its new lease of life.

The weather might be miserable, but the workmanship never is!

Representatives from South West Trades were delighted to attend the opening of the new Rocks & Wheels Activity Centre in Dalbeattie last night.

This exciting development is a fantastic addition to the town, celebrating its outdoor culture, strong community, and access to adventure. It’s great to see Dalbeattie further established as a destination for active living in the south west of Scotland.

Congratulations to everyone involved in bringing this vision to life - a truly special achievement for the town.

🎭✨ A huge GOOD LUCK to our very own Julie, who alongside her incredible work with South West Trades is also a seriously talented actress in her spare time! ✨🎭

Tonight the curtain rises on Bette & Joan at the Birchvale Theatre - and we couldn’t be prouder to see Julie starring as the legendary Bette Davis. 🌟

🔥 Hollywood glamour, fierce rivalry, razor-sharp wit and unforgettable performances… this promises to be an amazing show.

Break a leg Julie - we know you’ll be brilliant! 👏🎬

🤝 Our directors were proud to attend the official opening of the newly refurbished Solway Yacht Club in Kippford on Saturday - a project we’ve been honoured to deliver for the local region and community.

It’s been fantastic to hear such positive feedback on the transformation, and we’re incredibly grateful to have been trusted with creating updated, modern and more inclusive facilities for members and visitors to enjoy for many years to come.

A brilliant event celebrating a project we’re very proud to have been part of ⚓ 🛥️

⛰️ There’s nothing quite like local stone! ⛰️

Few materials stand the test of time like traditional sandstone, whinstone and granite, and we take real pride in preserving the materials that have shaped so much of our region’s character and architecture 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
From Dalbeattie granite to Thornhill sandstone, each of our projects is approached with respect for the raw materials alongside a commitment to quality results which are built to last.
Whether restoring existing stonework, rebuilding damaged features or repurposing original materials, our focus is always on longevity and showcasing the natural beauty of the material. Traditional masonry is a real speciality for the team, with several exciting projects currently underway across the region.
If heritage materials and skilled craftsmanship matter to you, we’d love to help bring your project to life.
