Temple Builders — Checkatrade Description

45 Years’ Combined Experience | Masonry & Restoration Specialists | Serving the North East

Welcome to Temple Builders, a family-run building and masonry business providing high-quality workmanship throughout the North East.

Run by Jordan and Uncle John, we bring together 45 years of combined hands-on trade experience, combining decades of traditional building knowledge with a modern, professional and straightforward approach to customer service.

While we have the experience and capability to undertake a wide range of building projects, masonry is at the heart of what we do.

From repointing and traditional walling to brickwork, blockwork, random stonework, chimney work and listed-building restoration, we take pride in doing things properly — using the right materials, proven methods and a level of craftsmanship that’s built to last.

Our Specialist Expertise

• Repointing & Masonry Restoration
Professional repointing, mortar repairs and masonry restoration for both traditional and modern properties. We carefully assess the existing masonry to determine the appropriate materials and methods for the building.

• Traditional & Random Stonework
Construction, rebuilding and repair of traditional stone walls and random stone masonry, with careful attention paid to stone selection, jointing and the overall character of the finished work.

• Brickwork & Blockwork
High-quality brick and block construction for walls, extensions, alterations, structural projects and new builds.

• Heritage & Listed Building Restoration
Sensitive repair and restoration of historic, traditional and listed properties, using appropriate materials and techniques to preserve the character and integrity of the original building.

• Lime Mortar Work
Traditional lime repointing and masonry work for older properties where breathability and compatibility with the existing masonry are particularly important.

• Specialist Chimney Works
Chimney repointing, repairs, rebuilding and restoration to help keep chimney structures safe, sound and weather-resistant.

• Architectural Stonework
Installation and replacement of stone sills, heads, copings and other architectural stone features.

• New Builds & Structural Construction
Experienced construction for new builds, extensions and structural projects, from foundations and blockwork through to finished facing brick and stonework.

• Patios & External Works
Quality patios, paving, steps, retaining walls and other external works, completed with the same attention to detail as our structural and restoration projects.

45 Years’ Combined Experience

With 45 years of combined experience in the trade, we have extensive practical knowledge across traditional and modern construction.

That experience is particularly valuable when working with older properties.

Traditional buildings often require a very different approach from modern construction. Using the wrong mortar or repair method can sometimes cause more damage than it prevents.

We take the time to understand the existing structure and choose materials and techniques appropriate to the property — particularly when undertaking lime work, stonework, repointing and heritage restoration.

Building With Trust — No Upfront Deposits

We believe quality workmanship should be backed by confidence.

That’s why Temple Builders does not require an upfront deposit before work begins.

We want our customers to feel comfortable with who they’re trusting with their property. From the initial quotation to completion, we provide clear communication, honest advice and a professional service.
