Lime Plastering
We have started to offer lime plastering as additional service alongside with plaster mouldings as customers often asked if we can do lime plastering as lime plasterers are very thin on the ground. Historical buildings benefit hugely from lime plaster as allow walls to “breathe” - moisture from inside / outside pass through thus makes the walls dry and warm. Lack of knowledge - people applied modern plastering system - gypsum based plaster or modern emulsion paints traps moisture in walls thus makes them damp and cold and develop salty deposits (efflorescence and gyroscopic salts) and mould spores. Let them breathe ! Get in touch (we can help - depending on size / nature of project and timeframe. We don’t offer lime re-skims - only from bricks and laths.
