Our Approach
The Art and Science of Stonemasonry
The art and science of stonemasonry is the balance that defines everything we do. It is the creativity to imagine form, proportion and surface, paired with the discipline to engineer strength, precision and longevity.
Our work spans architectural and interior commissions, heritage conservation and complex structural stonework. Each requires its own balance of skills, but the principle remains the same: meticulous craft, deep technical knowledge and unwavering integrity.

Our History
Six Generations of AFJONES
Since establishing our original yard in 1858, AFJONES has remained an independent, family-owned firm for six generations. What began as a local workshop in Reading has evolved into a leading masonry specialist, now operating from our advanced workshops in Ipsden. Over the decades, we have grown organically — balancing our heritage as master masons with a forward-thinking commitment to innovation — to become trusted advisors for some of the UK's most significant architectural and conservation projects.
Let's discuss your vision in stone.
Whether you are at the earliest stage of an idea or just about to start. We promise to deliver stonemasonry to be proud of, with our values at the core of everything we do.
