Business Summary
My name is Joseph Hunt and I am an experienced stonemason. I qualified in 1998 and worked for a prestigious company employed by The National Trust. I have worked on numerous historic buildings including the British Museum, Salisbury Cathedral and Waddesdon Manor. I established Joseph Hunt Stonemasonry in France in 2009. I am also a fully insured general builder and have a team of experienced trades who work alongside me.

My work includes full renovations, project management and all aspects of building work. I use my skills as a craftsman to sympathetically restore or create stonework in-keeping with the age and character of a building, including traditional repointing.

I am passionate about building restoration and give all contracts the highest care and consideration.

Stone Walling & paving

“We are very pleased with Joe Hunt’s work which was carried out professionally, on time and to a fair price. The job comprised rebuilding a stone wall with new copings, creating new steps and a path to a traditional Charentaise property. He followed our brief to the letter and expertly blended the old with the new. We would not hesitate to employ him again. ”

Renovation of Ancient French Bread Oven

“This is the fourth job Joseph Hunt will have completed for us. Previous jobs include repairing a cracked lintel on our large Charentaise fireplace, a full stone window reveal inserted into a dark bathroom with no natural light, and replacement of a large oak beam and corner stones above a hayloft door. Now that we have met Joe and witnessed his passion for a professionally completed job, we would not have anyone else working on our property for this type of work.”

Creating of Stone Window Surrounds

“Joseph Hunt was asked to create stone window surrounds and to fit windows in-keeping with our style of property. Joseph and his team were excellent; we had a narrow window of opportunity for the work and Joe delivered. I would recommend this artisan.”
