A Better Way to Solve Property Problems
At Cornerstone, we don’t just respond to symptoms, we get to the source of the issue. Our method is clear, proven, and designed to minimise stress and disruption.
1. Comprehensive Investigation & Diagnosis
We use advanced tools and real-world expertise to assess the full extent of the issue. This includes:
- Moisture mapping
- Structural assessments
- Leak detection
- Mould and air quality testing
- Infrared thermography
- And more
We’re known for identifying root causes that others miss, often saving clients thousands in unnecessary work.
2. One Team, One Contact
Property damage often involves multiple trades and disciplines. We act as your single point of contact, coordinating everything from diagnosis to repair, so you don’t have to juggle multiple contractors or quotes.
3. Clear Plans & Fixed Pricing
We don’t believe in vague estimates or endless “monitoring.” Our reports are action-oriented, and where possible, we provide fixed costs upfront. You’ll know what’s required, how long it will take, and what it will cost.
4. Safety and Risk Management
Health and safety are at the core of everything we do. We work within current building and environmental regulations, and we ensure that residents, tenants, staff, and contractors are safe and fully informed throughout the process.

Our Company Ethos in Action
Our mission is simple: restore properties, protect businesses, and keep people safe, with minimal disruption.
Many companies follow a “rip out and replace” model or charge blanket room rates. We don’t. Here’s how we do it differently:
- We don’t interrupt your business – Need to keep trading? Have vulnerable residents or critical operations? We’ll work around them, not shut them down.
- We get creative with solutions – Where others see only demolition, we see smarter options. We think laterally to deliver the right fix, not the most expensive one.
- We’re transparent about pre-existing issues – We don’t hide problems or inflate scopes. If something existed before, we’ll flag it honestly and explain your options.
We work in partnership with you, not just as contractors, but as problem-solvers you can rely on.
