“In all instances the quality of work produced by LTM has been exceptional and their site staff have been found to be hard working and courteous.

We have found LTM’s management team to be approachable and willing to provide expert advice from the earliest stages of project development. Their focus on health & safety and customer satisfaction, together with their working knowledge of traditional skills, give the National Trust for Scotland the confidence to afford LTM opportunities to tender for future work.”

“I particularly applaud and admire Laing Traditional Masonry’s commitment to quality and to continual training of its workforce in the materials and skills necessary to complete high quality conservation work.

Your company has become the benchmark by which, conservation workers and contractors should be judged in the North of Scotland.”

Douglas Forrest, Acanthus Architects

“I think the work ethos of Laing Traditional Masonry is perhaps one of the best I have ever come across. I have been extremely impressed by them but most importantly find it amazing that they have maintained their excellent level of service over the years. I most certainly would not hesitate in recommending Laing Traditional Masonry to anyone who was genuinely looking at restoring an old building and cared about doing it sympathetically and in keeping with the history of the building.”

Westerclune Steading, Nairn

“I would like to put on record my very positive impression of your company which was due in great measure to the attitude and industry of your team - they were at all times pleasant and courteous, and took great trouble to minimize the disruption that such works inevitable cause.

They were very professional in their approach to the job, and they were the only building tradesmen I have ever encountered who took the trouble to clear up properly after the work was completed.”

“Please pass on my thanks to your staff for their friendliness and quality of workmanship. I will certainly be recommending your firm to any clients who are in need of masonry repairs.”

St. Laurence Church, Forres

“Throughout the contract period their dealings with us as clients was never less than exemplary, both management and workers showing sensitivity to the fact that this was a working church. Interruption of work at short notice for funerals was accepted without complaint and the site was always tidy.

It has been a pleasure to have Steven and his staff working on our Church, with the feeling that they actually care about the buildings they are repairing. They are an asset to the architecture of the North of Scotland.”

Dr. Douglas J. Murray, Congregational Treasurer, St. Laurence Church, Forres

“Thank you Steven for doing such a wonderful job on Lumsden Church. I spent time last week looking it over and it’s really great.

On Sunday, I was leading worship in the church and I took time to tell the congregation about all that had been done. I talked about you and showed them your brochure and we offered thanks for a church ‘as good as new’.”
