Hi all.
I have some fairly ugly stone window sills at the back of my house.
So I'm thinking of replacing them if I can get them done cheap enough.
I imagine there are reconsituted stone products out there. But I don't
know where to look.

Anyone know any suppliers?

Try inputting "UK architectural 'reconstituted stone' " into Google and
watch with amazement as hundreds of UK based reconstituted-stone
manufacturers, retailers and suppliers are listed - _you_ could also
restrict the search criteria with your location.

You could always do some in place formwork and pour concrete. Cost is a
few
quid for wood, cement, sand and aggregate.

Thanks.

How could I ensure a smooth finish?

I want to have a more modern look so I'm thinking..flat profile, bull nose
profile, 3" height.

Question : In general do the old stone sills extend to the 'back brick' or
only the 'front brick'?

Why are they "ugly"?

Maybe not ugly. More..useless as they have a steep slope to them and their
appearance have not dated well.

Got a pic? Perhaps they could be renovated?
Curious about your "handle" (Davao), too.

Davao City.
Retirement destination. Mindanao region of the Philippines.
My pension will support a family there. No garuantee of that here.
Well away from this going down the tubes suffocating dump called UK.

Will send a jpg pic of the sill any time you want.

You're supposed to upload to a web or ftp site and post a link here.
