Welcome to Colin Stephenson Masonry
At CSM, we’re proud to be a family-run team of experienced craftsmen specialising in restoring, conserving, and repairing historic buildings. Whether we’re carefully re-pointing a stone archway on a university campus or restoring the integrity of a boundary wall in a quiet residential street, our dedication remains the same: high standards, done right the first time.
From listed churches and heritage sites to local schools and homes, we’re trusted across the North East to bring care, skill and integrity to every project.
About Us
A Family Business with Traditional Values
CSM began in 1999 with Colin and a small team restoring buildings across the North East. Over two decades later, we’ve grown into a skilled, tight-knit workforce proudly led by Colin and his family. With over 30 years of hands-on experience in the trade, we combine time-served knowledge with a practical, down-to-earth approach to every project.
We believe in honest advice, clear communication, and work that speaks for itself.
