Cast stone moulds · Cills and lintels

Cast stone cill and lintel moulds.

Moulds for cast stone window cills, heads and lintels with crisp arrises, drips and stools — for new-build and like-for-like replacement.

Overview

Cills and lintels, in plain terms.

Cills and lintels are the backbone of cast stone work. The profiles are simple, but arrises must be sharp and drips must be clean.

We make moulds for standard lengths and for adjustable-length casting with stop-ends.

What sets it apart

Four things that define this route.

01

Weathered cills

Sloping tops, stools and drips.

02

Lintels and heads

Plain, chamfered and moulded profiles.

03

Adjustable length

Stop-ends so one mould casts many lengths.

04

Replacement matching

Profiles taken from existing cills.

How we build it

From pattern to released tool.

For wet-cast work we use polyurethane or silicone liners in a rigid box. For semi-dry, a firmer, reinforced tool.

Stop-ends are designed to locate positively so every length comes out square.

The honest bit

What to know before you commit.

Semi-dry cast stone is hard on moulds. Tell us your method so we spec accordingly.

FAQs

Questions we hear about this.

Semi-dry or wet-cast?

Both, but the tool differs.

Can you match a Victorian cill?

Yes, from a profile or offcut.

One photograph tells us what surface you're chasing, and one line about the mix tells us what silicone or polyurethane will survive it.
