From solid-wall terraces to farmhouses and listed buildings, the older housing stock around Halesowen in West Midlands needs breathable finishes. Our Halesowen lime plastering team applies authentic lime plaster, external lime render and lime pointing to keep West Midlands heritage buildings dry, stable and original.
Whether it is a stone cottage on the edge of Halesowen, a Victorian terrace near the centre, or a farm building out in West Midlands, each project starts with a survey of the existing substrate so the lime mix, aggregate and coat build-up are correct for that property.
Using lime in Halesowen is usually a conservation requirement as much as a technical one. It keeps the property eligible for heritage consent, preserves original detailing, and gives a soft, hand-finished surface that modern boards simply cannot replicate.
We do. Halesowen is one of our core areas and we travel throughout West Midlands and the surrounding parts of West Midlands for lime plastering, lime render, lime pointing and heritage repair work.
Where damp is caused by trapped moisture in a solid wall — very common in older Halesowen properties — replacing cement or gypsum with lime allows the wall to dry out. We always identify the source of moisture during the survey before recommending work.
Yes, but it must be finished with a breathable product such as limewash, clay paint or a mineral silicate paint. We advise on suitable finishes for each Halesowen project so the breathability is not lost at the final coat.
