Hamish Hunter is a Stone Mason and member of the Canadian Association of Heritage Professionals. He took his apprenticeship in Glasgow, Scotland and is a member of the City and Guilds of London Institute. Hamish came to Canada in 1990 and after working for several large stone companies, he founded Hamish Hunter Stonemason. In Canada, he is one of the few Master stonemasons who can both carve and i

The craft of stonemasonry has existed since the dawn of civilization - creating buildings, structures, and sculpture using stone from the earth. Many of these ancient monuments continue to stand to this day.

Great to go back and see our Oakville Ontario project now that the grass and landscaping are completed.
On this project we supplied,sourced ,fabricated and installed all the Indiana limestone.
The brick was all installed by H Stone also.
Around 50 000 brick and a semi truck trailer full of stone went into this project.
The crew did an excellent job on the fabrication of the stone and the installation of the stone and brick.
Whitehall Homes were the GC on this project.

Last Saturday we were invited by The Canadian Association of Heritage Professionals to be part of the Heritage trades event at The Cotton Factory building in Hamilton.
Local businesses who specialize in historical restoration were asked to display. It was a great networking opportunity and we met many interesting people in the restoration industry.

A recent small restoration project we completed in Hamilton Ontario.
The bricks pillars at the front of the residence had no foundation under them and were hollow inside .The brick was failing and the heavy Indiana limestone caps were looking like they might collapse along with the brick pillars.
Our team removed the Indiana limestone coping and took them to the workshop for cleaning and restoration.
We then dug down four feet below the frost line.Installed a proper concrete foundation,built concrete block to grade.
An Indiana limestone base course was installed on each pillar.The original Canadian bricks were cleaned and re used.New bricks were matched and installed as required.
The Indiana limestone caps were re installed after cleaning.
We were sub contracted for this project by fellow CAHP members Heritage Mill.
A small project but a lot of work by the whole crew.

Here is the front entrance archway that we recently finished installing at a project near Lakeshore Road in Oakville. We laid all the brick on this custom home.The Indiana limestone archway and all other Indiana limestone was fabricated in our Hamilton workshop by Richard and the lads.
The stone was installed on site by myself and the rest of the crew.
This house kept the crew busy for a good part of 2025.A great crew effort.

Some more photos of the pieces we fabricated for the Flat Iron building in Toronto. Main contractor HRI.
These are the ramp and twist archways at the North East corner of the building. Ramp and twist arches twist on two planes and are notoriously difficult to restore .The team did a wonderful job on these .We took templates made CAD drawings and took several of the original pieces back to the workshop to copy to make the replacements fit perfectly.
Richard and the shop crew did a lovely job.
The consultants on the project liked the new pieces so much that they have asked us to replace several other pieces in these arches that were not previously slated for replacement.
Often the way in masonry restoration. Replacements make the existing pieces next to them look a bit rough.
