"Can I pass our sincere thanks to the team at Stone Technical Services. They were very good to work with and clearly know what they're doing.

Additionally, they were extremely patient in helping us to work with the local press from which several pieces have come. We have been very grateful for their support."

Hope all is well.
Many thanks

"I would like to thank Stone Technical Services for the recent Lightning Protection Testing carried out on our behalf. Works were completed within well planned timescales and communication throughout the contract was excellent from both office and engineer personnel.
Subsequent feed back from our client was first rate and has resulted in extra work being generated for us. I look forward to continued business with Stone in the future."

"I hope my email finds you well. This is just a courtesy email - keeping in touch. We were delighted with the services you provided for our two lightning Protection Tests.

An update on the quotation you kindly offered to fix the site at Urbanest; it turns out they had a warranty and were able to get the repairs completed through the warranty.

As soon as we have any further lightning protection contracts we will certainly be in touch."

"Stone Technical Services designed and installed a Class 1 Lightning Protection System to the CH3 Power Laboratory and adjacent substation buildings at GE Aviation, Cheltenham.
I found them very cooperative and they managed to fit in well with the build programme. The workmanship and and attention to detail was first class and the technical team were always on hand to answer questions and give advice"

I should be grateful if you would pass on to the relevant persons the thanks of the Abbey bell ringers for the recent remedial work on the spiral staircases leading to the Ringing Chamber and to the bell Chamber.

The levelling of the treads on many of the more badly worn steps has proved to be very helpful to those who have to negotiate the route regularly to ring the bells and visiting ringers have also remarked on the improvement.

Thanks again to you for your help with this matter and to all those who participated in the decision to commission the work,

Yours sincerely,

John Snook.

Secretary, Hexham Guild of Bell Ringers.

 

Many thanks for your guys time on site and completing the work as planned.  Great job and looks good and gives us a level of confidence if the worse were to happen – but also gives us a good earth bond.

Hopefully certs and any corresponding paperwork will be with us soon.

Once again many thanks and great work.

 

On behalf of Lincolnshire County Council I would like to formally thank you for deploying members of your team to rescue the trapped pigeon at Lincoln Castle.

We are particularly appreciative of the early start that Ian and his colleague made to get to our site before we opened to the public. They acted with professionalism and maintained a positive image when talking to members of the public.

Thank you once again.

Yours sincerely

Kimberley Walshaw

Site Coordinator

Its good to be able to report that the Quinquennial works contract was completed on Friday 23 October, four weeks ahead of schedule and within the agreed contract cost. Stone Technical Services of Darlington executed the repair works to a particularly high standard. They were ably led on by Ian Clegg who was most helpful and cooperative in all situations. Disturbance of church activities was kept to an absolute minimum.

The most visible works were on the spire, resplendent now with its new apex stone and crowning weather vane. I am told the light colour of the stone will quickly tone down to match the adjacent stonework. The other prominent item was the repairing of the floor around the Mitford Chapel altar. The stone came from quarries near Leyburn in North Yorkshire. The original external infill stonework to the old door on the north side of the nave was crumbling and was demolished and beautifully re-built.

Day to day inspections of the works were made by Ces Maddison of architects Purves Ash. They carried out the Quinquennial inspection in 2007. Purves Ash also monitored the health and safety aspects of the full site works. Grateful thanks to all parties for the spirit of cooperation, and the essential ingrediant of a touch of humour.

Further to our meeting of today at the above i can confirm the following:

  • The conservation officer, Heather Grimshaw, has inspected the work and is of the opinion that it is satisfactory (as indicated at the meeting).
  • The areas highlighted in the report, being those that you have contractually undertaken to carry out repairs to, have been satisfactorily completed.
  • Additional work, generally pointing, replacement of bricks and re-setting of copings has been done and, as agreed, at no additional cost to Darlington Borough Council.
  • The works have been left in a clean and safe condition.

My thanks, in particular to the site foreman Paul Tinkler for his conscientious approach to the work, and to yourself on behalf of Stone Technical Services Ltd.

Hi Julian

This is just to remind you that I am away from tomorrow until the 19th, and as I have not yet received a bill nor an authority to pay, there will be no action on this now on our part until w/c 21st September.  I am sorry for the delay that will be involved as I feel STS deserves prompt payment - the job looks good and makes a very positive impression visually on everyone who sees it, and Terry was a great ambassador for the firm,

Best regards,
Paul

Dear Alan

Please find enclosed a cheque for the conductor fitted at Hutton Rudby.  We were very pleased with the neat finish.
