Jasper Swann Pty Ltd

Stone Conservation and Heritage Restoration Consultant

Schedule of Conservation Works & Specifications

Context

Traditionally, those responsible for scheduling stonework repairs to heritage buildings often engaged masonry contractors to advise on the necessary repairs. While these contractors were typically skilled and knowledgeable masons, it was often the case that they could have— or be perceived to have— a vested interest in determining the scope and quantity of the required works. This potential conflict of interest highlights the need for impartial expertise when it comes to stone conservation.
