"In recent years the introductions of 'fast track' techniques has revolutionised the organisation of building contracts, and the developers of today demand the best quality stonework and a rapid building programme.
Johnsons, as one of the leading UK suppliers of Hard York Stone, have developed systems of work to tackle the most demanding projects. For jobs to succeed this involves meticulous planning; in production design and fixing. If there are shortcomings in any one of these operations the results can be disastrous.
Design of the stonework is of particular importance, and it should be appreciated that between the Architect's drawings being prepared and the arrival of stone on site, there is a critical stage in any contract where the precise design of the stonework has to be undertaken, to provide both production information, in the form of cutting schedules and templates, and fixing drawings for contruction purposes.
This is the most crucial stage of the job, and as such the design work needs to be placed in expert and experienced hands.
To this end we have, for the past 5 years, engaged the services of Stewart Design (UK) Ltd on projects of all types, to provide working drawings, cutting schedules and templates. The information provided is always accurate and professionally presented, and they are used to working on tight design programmes and meeting critical completion deadlines. In addition to this they always adopt a cooperative and helpful approach to problem solving; and there are always a lot of problems to solve on most jobs!
We therefore have no hesitation whatsoever in recomending Stewart Design (UK) Ltd for any kined of stonework project. Their involvement will ensure a smooth running project, and will take the burden of responsibility for the design of the stonework away from the supplier and fixing contractor, allowing them to focus on production and project planning."
