A considered approach to lime plastering
Lime plaster may be appropriate where breathability and compatibility with the underlying fabric are important. The existing wall and previous materials need to be understood first.
Because every older property is different, the proposed build-up and finish should follow an inspection rather than a one-size-fits-all specification.
Planning your plastering work
Before work starts, it helps to understand the size of the area, the current background, access and any related building work. Photographs can be useful for an initial conversation, although an in-person assessment may be needed before the precise preparation is confirmed.
Homes around Reading range from period properties to modern apartments and newly built extensions. The appropriate finish depends on the room and substrate rather than a generic specification. We welcome enquiries from homeowners, landlords, developers and builders.
