Architectural Masonry
Alongside this, we also specialise in Architectural Masonry, stocking a selection of products within our range. This includes both Natural Stone and Reconstituted Stone. Natural Stone is a stunning hand-crafted piece of stone that will inject a beautiful texture and depth to any house or building. Reconstituted Stone is a quicker, more cost-effective and simpler product to manufacture. It is superior to Natural Stone in terms of strength, moisture resistance and consistency of colour.

Furthermore, FORT Builders’ Merchant also provides a wide range of blocks. Our range encompasses concrete blocks, aircrete blocks, flint blocks, and Block and Beam. A highly popular form of flooring system, Block and Beam is commonly used by small and large house-builders. It’s straightforward and recommended by the majority of architects for ground floors.

Furthermore, we stock lintels, which are a type of beam that are typically placed above windows and doors. The purpose of a lintel is to support the load from the structure above.
