Renovation of stone pillars

We make custom-made ashlar pillars, but we can also restore old pillars :

For the stone pillars of this medieval castle, the upper part no longer existed, so we made moulded stone capitals and extended the shafts, and changed the base stones. Everything was aged to ensure it blended in with the very old existing stonework, and the patina of time will do the rest.

Here are some of the stages in the renovation of the stone pillars, with before and after photos, and the preparatory drawing made for the project.

Lochard & Lucas ironworks in Lectoure was then able to create a custom-made wrought iron gate.
