Natural stone and large-format porcelain panels that bring genuine material depth to walls, media surrounds, fireplace surrounds and external facades across the North East.
Request a Quote Call 0191 258 1540Stone cladding introduces something that paint, plaster and timber simply can't replicate — the weight, depth and natural variation of real stone. Whether it's a large-format porcelain media wall in a contemporary living room, a granite fireplace surround in a period property, or an external façade treatment on a new build, the material brings something genuine and lasting to the space.
We supply and install stone cladding across Newcastle, North Tyneside, Northumberland and County Durham. Every installation starts with a site visit, every panel is cut in our own workshop, and every fixing is installed with attention to level, alignment and long-term stability.
Natural variation that can't be reproduced in paint or wallpaper.
Porcelain and granite hold their colour in direct sunlight — indoors or out.
Wipe clean with warm water — no repainting, no re-plastering.
Granite and porcelain are fully suitable for external use in the North East climate.
Stone cladding works across a surprisingly wide range of contexts. These are the projects we take on most often.
Large-format porcelain panels create a clean, architectural media wall with near-seamless joints and a surface that simply needs wiping. We cut precisely around TV apertures, socket positions and integrated lighting elements. Equally effective as a hallway or living room feature wall where texture is wanted without the maintenance of natural stone.
Stone fireplace surrounds, slips and back panels are among our most popular interior cladding applications. Marble brings quiet luxury to a traditional fireplace; granite gives weight and permanence; large-format porcelain suits the clean aesthetic of a contemporary gas or electric fire. Full-height kitchen splashbacks in stone or ceramic complete a kitchen surface treatment seamlessly.
Granite and porcelain stand up to North East weather without treatment. We install external cladding for building facades, entrance features, outdoor kitchen surrounds and garden wall features. Fixing methods, substrate preparation and alignment are all assessed and planned before work starts — external cladding done properly is a long-term investment, and we treat it as one.
Before any panel is placed, we assess the substrate — checking for level, stability and suitability for the fixing method. We confirm alignment lines, corner details and the direction of the panel pattern or grain. For external cladding, we confirm the fixing and sealing specification to ensure long-term weatherproofing.
This preparation stage is not rushed. Getting the layout right at the start means the cladding sits evenly, joints are consistent, and the finished surface feels considered and well proportioned. All work is carried out by our own fitting team — no subcontractors.
Large-format, near-seamless joints, UV stable, easy to maintain. The most popular choice for media walls and internal feature walls.

View granite Natural StoneDramatic veining for interior feature walls, fireplace surrounds and bathroom splash areas where the stone itself is the statement.
View marbleFor internal cladding we most commonly use large-format porcelain, granite and marble slab panels. Large-format porcelain gives a clean, grout-minimal surface ideal for media walls and kitchen splashbacks. Granite and marble introduce natural variation and depth for feature walls in living spaces and hallways.
Yes — granite and porcelain are both suitable for external cladding. They are frost-resistant and UV-stable, maintaining their appearance through the North East's variable weather. Fixing methods and surface preparation are critical for external work, and we assess each substrate carefully before confirming the installation approach.
A stone media wall typically uses large-format porcelain or granite panels, cut precisely around the TV aperture, socket positions and any lighting elements. We template the wall carefully, cut panels in our workshop, and install to a consistent level and joint line. The result is a clean, architectural feature that becomes the focal point of the room.
