Company Overview
Company Description
Realstone is one of the largest suppliers of natural stone in the UK and has three sites: Head Office and Works - Chesterfield , Scottish Office and works - Glasgow and Cumbria Works - Penrith. Realstone's sister company Blockstone operates 8 quarries throughout the UK; seven sandstone and one limestone.
At each production site stone is carefully prepared to the highest standards depending on destination, demand and production capacity. All three sites have the ability to carry out banker masonry work up to the most complex of designs. Your project is our business so early consultation is vital to achieve a smooth and value-engineered project, large or small.
Control is centralised in Chesterfield for major works, however, good local communication is encouraged and orders are processed locally for customers in the area of each plant.
Whether it is a few heads sills and quoins for a local builder or a major supply contract for a city center development all customers are valued equally and every effort is made to make your Realstone buying experience a pleasurable one. Exceeding expectations is our aim!
Our Production Capability includes primary, secondary and profiling saws; lathes and masoning facilities. Please do take some time out to visit us at any of the works. You will be impressed.
