Traditional Masonry was founded by Paul in 2004 in North Shields. His son Conor joined the business in 2018. Between them, they've overseen the template, fabrication and installation of thousands of stone surfaces across Newcastle, North Tyneside, Northumberland and County Durham.
Every worktop we make is measured on site using digital laser equipment, cut in our North Shields workshop, and fitted by our own qualified team. We never subcontract — so the people you deal with in the showroom are the same people who template and fit your worktops. That continuity is what makes the difference.
We work with four core surface materials across kitchens, bathrooms and commercial spaces — each with its own character, maintenance requirements and price range. Come into the showroom to see full-size slabs before you decide.
Hard, heat-tolerant and genuinely unique — every slab is different. The original kitchen worktop and still one of the best for busy homes.
