Built on experience

The collective wealth of experience at John Briggs And Son means there are not many issues that haven’t been overcome in the past, which allows potential problems to be highlighted and factored out of projects during the pre-construction phase. This expertise helps to ensure projects are delivered on time and on budget.

Projects have included ecclesiastical buildings, specifically Grade II listed churches, some of which were still in use by the local community at the time, others being preserved as controlled ruins. Both situations required care whilst the works were ongoing.

Working on churches

This is an area of restoration where respect for the building and it’s history is of paramount importance. Churches play an important part in many people’s lives, even in the modern era, so the conservation work undertaken in this environment is treated with the utmost care and respect.

Churches and ecclesiastical buildings by their nature are challenging, but John Briggs And Son successfully rises to that challenge and continues to satisfy an ongoing demand in this sector.

The stonemason

The stonemason’s craft has existed since the dawn of civilisation with buildings, structures and sculpture all being created using stone from the earth. Building castles was an entire industry for the medieval masons and the 11th and 12th centuries saw construction of thousands of churches and cathedrals across western Europe.

This is why the work of companies like John Briggs And Son, as restoration and conservation specialists, is so important to maintain these glorious building from our past.
