Lime Mortars
Most failings of old renderings are attributable to water penetration, usually resulting from lack of maintenance or inadequate protection from the elements. In addition, errors in techniques and poor materials used to correct failures often contribute to the deteriation they set out to correct.


Advantages of Natural Hydraulic Lime Render

A softer mortar will not wear away surrounding masonry Aesthetic – Hydraulic lime renders carry a charming, traditional appearance.
