Testimonial
“Charlie, all the semi-dry stone walling is on
SureCav. Brilliant idea you had! The stone is
Cotswold Stone, 150mm on bed, laid semi- dry
to conceal the mortar. We wanted it to look like
random walling without regular, level,
coursing. The walling craftsmen were able to
achieve this random effect with SureCav.”
