Traditional Lime Plastering Services

With more and more people looking at sympathetic restoration and choosing to use the products that the builders who built their house used, its no surprise that lime is coming back as a product.

It is also important to use tradesman who are well versed in the use of tradition al products and will take the time to ensure that your work is done correctly and in a professional manner.

At Davey plastering and lime we offer a complete lime plastering service from general advice to full usage of lime plasters be it putty or hydraulic lime.

In most cases hair (goat, horse or any specific requirement) is added to the mix for strength and flexibility. Lime in general is a softer and more flexible product, in some cases self-healing.

Having been doing this a long time we have built up a good portfolio of work some of which is in view in churches, museums and older buildings. Other in private housing and estates.

We have replaced complete church ceilings using three coat lime plaster over split laths (mixed with hair). Three coat work over stone and brick.

We help customers select the most suitable material for their project then take the greatest care restoring their building to its former beauty.

When used alongside properly breathable paints ceilings and walls should work as they were originally designed to giving a healthier environment.

We also provide a lime rendering service using traditional two coat sand and lime and also more modern lime products including Limegreen renders and natural finishes.

We also offer Limegreen Warmshell to those seeking to add insulation to the building while still allowing it to breathe.
