Looking for lime plastering in Stafford? We are traditional lime specialists covering Staffordshire and the rest of West Midlands, working on solid-wall cottages, Georgian and Victorian houses, listed buildings and conservation-area properties throughout Stafford.
Damp problems in Stafford homes are often caused by the wrong material rather than the wrong building. Where cement render has been applied to a solid Staffordshire wall, stripping it back and re-rendering in lime typically resolves the damp within a single drying season.
Lime is flexible, breathable and self-healing. On Stafford properties with soft brick or West Midlands stone, it moves with the building instead of cracking away from it, and it protects the masonry rather than the other way round.
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 Stafford project so the breathability is not lost at the final coat.
Every property is different, so we do not publish fixed prices. Cost depends on the substrate, the number of coats, access and whether failed cement needs removing first. We survey the property in Stafford and provide a written, no-obligation quote.
Yes. We regularly work on listed and conservation-area properties across Staffordshire and can supply mix specifications and sample panels for Stafford conservation officers where consent is required.
Lime cures slowly by carbonation. As a guide, allow around one week per coat in typical West Midlands conditions, longer in cold or damp weather. We protect the work and control drying so the finish cures evenly rather than cracking.
