Why Do You Need to Use Lime Plastering?

Lime mortar, lime plasters and lime renders are a natural, breathable covering utilised in older buildings made with a porous brick, or with timber framed panels. The panels were often in-filled with wattle and daub, and lime render was used as the exterior finish coat, with lime plaster used internally.

Lime plastering in Chester is mainly based in the refurbishment of the older structures which of late there’s been resurgence all over the UK. We ourselves as a business have also carried out several restoration jobs using the more traditional lime plaster to grade one and grade two listed buildings throughout the UK.

Traditional Dry Lining

This type of plaster is a traditional material for period properties and is usually required by English heritage in there repairs.

Lime plaster has been in use for hundreds of years a long time ahead of the current and more up-to-date sand and cement and gypsum techniques came into practice and used for the more modern properties which are being constructed today.
