Leading the
Stonemasonry Trade

At The Marble & Granite Fitters Cairns, we are an equal opportunity employer and we have a strong reputation for craftsmanship and services in marble, granite, and engineered stone.

Our stonemasons are hand-picked for their experience and technical capabilities enabling us to consistently offer superior workmanship for our clients and educate in this trade for apprentices.

Until you spend a day learning stonemasonry, you’d possibly never given much thought to the fact that walls are flat. But after a few hours in a boiler suit and safety goggles, hacking incompetently at a block of Portland limestone, the flatness of walls – especially stone ones, in churches and stately homes and suchlike – suddenly struck new apprentices to this industry as completely astonishing.
Consider three facts:
First
Stone comes out of the ground in massive, irregular, knobbly hunks.
Second
By the time it ends up as part of a wall, it’s almost perfectly flat.
Third
Most of those walls were built long before the invention of enormous motorised buzz saws that slice cleanly through the stone in minutes. Instead, that flatness was achieved by masons chipping away, precisely and patiently, with chisels and mallets.
If you ever think about the art of stonemasonry at all, you probably think of intricate carvings, elegant columns, or gargoyles. Yet those vast expanses of flatness are amazing. You don’t tend to notice them – but to make them unnoticeable takes a great deal of skill.

Over the years our Qualified Stonemasons have skilfully finished their accreditations through TAFE, Queensland based in Brisbane.

Tafe Queensland and The Marble & Granite Fitters Cairns work closely together to determine the correct study criteria and courses based on knowledge, hands-on practice and class theory. We continue to drive the industry in trade qualified stonemasonry.
