What is stone work?

Stone work refers to the craft and trade of shaping, cutting, and installing natural or artificial stone for construction and decorative purposes. Stone workers, often called stonemasons, build structures such as walls, buildings, walkways, and monuments using materials like granite, marble, limestone, and sandstone. This job involves skills in measuring, carving, fitting, and finishing stones, as well as knowledge of construction techniques. Stone work can be both structural and artistic, depending on the project requirements.
