Imported stone may come in other colours but doesn’t weather well and is not always a good choice, initially once installed they look may look great but this appearance soon deteriorates.

The O’Flaherty lineage that brought us to where we are today was based in Saggart Co. Dublin and worked on the construction of Saggart Church in 1849. We take immense pride in our heritage and our family history of working in Masonry. Today, our owner Killian is the 8th generation of a line of stone masons dating back to the 1800s. His sister, Petra, is the first registered woman stone mason apprentice that Ireland has experienced in over 30 years!
Killian’s grandfather, Sean (the 6th generation), was a retired stone mason and bricklayer who often spoke about his life in the trade, the men he worked with, and even the Stone Mason language bear lorraigge. Fascinated by his family lineage, Killian gathered stories and images of the many generations of O’Flaherty stone masons. Today, Killian has images of his great-great-grandfather (Richard, the 4th generation) and great-grandfather (Thomas, the 5th generation). Additionally, Killian impressively collected a range of stories dating back to his 5x great-grandfather. The O’Flaherty family legacy of 8 generations working in masonry and its contribution to the inclusion of women in a largely male-based industry, is a fine representation of Irish history in the modern world.
O’Flaherty (Middle Irish: Ua Flaithbertach; Modern Irish: Ă“ Flaithbheartaigh), is an Irish Gaelic clan, based most prominently in what is today County Galway. We are known as the Ferocious O’Flaherty’s.
