Traditional Masonry LTD
Traditional Masonry is a family-run stone worktop specialist based in North Shields, serving Newcastle, North Tyneside, Northumberland and County Durham since 2004. We supply and install granite, quartz, marble and ceramic for kitchen worktops, bathrooms, bar tops, restaurant counters and bespoke stone cladding, across both homes and commercial projects. Every job is templated on site with digital laser equipment, cut in our own North Shields workshop and fitted by our own qualified team. We never subcontract, so the people you meet in the showroom are the people who do the work. Most installations complete within 7 to 10 working days of templating. Visit the showroom to see full-size slabs, or call for a free site visit and quote.
Customer's reviews
Quartz worktops and upstands fitted two weeks ago by traditional masonry. Conor was extremely helpful in the showroom with prices and options on materials and finishes, and Paul’s measurements were meticulous. The fitters were great and we couldn’t be more happy with the end result. We had to wait an extra week, but only because the first slab that was delivered wasn’t up to standard so the guys sent it back and had it replaced. Happy to recommend!

We are absolutely thrilled with our new Unistone work top. From the advice Paul gave me initially in choosing colours to the templating, delivery and fantastic fitting team everything was perfect. No issues what so ever and the finish and look of the overall work top is stunning. I visited three local kitchen work top suppliers and instantly knew Traditional Masonry was the one I felt most comfortable with.
Paul and his team took the time to explain the entire process and showed me the work shop and some large slabs to get an idea of which colour (out of hundreds!) to choose. For such a seemingly complicated process they made it seamless and stress free and the workmanship and result is outstanding.

Thanks to the Traditional Masonry team. They provided sound advice, which steered our choice of product in the right direction. Attentive when answering queries before the fitting took place. Quick and efficient fitting process, patient and not pushy in any way. Far better value than buying from the mainstream kitchen suppliers. We'd recommend them to anyone. Even assisted with preparing our offcuts for re-use as small tables, so limiting any waste.
