Specialists in the restoration and conservation of plasterwork to historic buildings
Our Services
We offer a range of gypsum and lime plastering services from initial consultation to completion. Although we specialise in historic building restoration and conservation as well as the renovation of traditional buildings, our plasterers work on any building requiring our professional expertise.
Our works include:
Hydraulic Lime Renders
Lime render plasters can be used either internally or externally. It can be plain, enabling decoration with natural paints, or self coloured which can be maintenance free for a duration of time. Hydraulic lime render is a more durable material for external use than the putty lime render.
Putty Lime Renders
Lime putty (Non Hydraulic Lime) can also be used internally or externally. The finished product will require decoration with either a lime wash or natural paints to protect it.
Haired Putty Internal Plasterworks
Hair reinforced lime plaster is used internally onto brick or laths. Reinforced with a natural hair of either horse or goat it requires decoration with natural paints.
Run in Situ and Cast Decorative Mouldings
Using any of the lime materials listed above in either internal or external situations, we can repair or re-instate any architectural mouldings and decorative cornices. Using either a run in situ or cast moulding method, a perfect match to the original works can be obtained. We can also supply gypsum based fibrous ornamental plasterwork.
Hand Modelled Decorative Plasterwork
Where fine attention to detail is required in restoring or conserving decorative plasterwork our skilled craftsmen can hand model the decoration using the aforementioned materials.
