Lime Plastering is a specialist lime plastering contractor working throughout Weymouth and the wider Dorset area. Period and pre-1919 properties across Weymouth were built to breathe, and we restore them using traditional lime plaster, lime render and lime mortar — never cement or gypsum.
Many properties in and around Weymouth sit within conservation areas or carry listed status, which means finishes must match the original construction. We work regularly with Dorset conservation officers and specify hot-mixed lime, lime putty or NHL mortars to suit each individual building.

Every property is different, so we do not publish fixed prices.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 Weymouth and provide a written, no-obligation quote.
Yes. We regularly work on listed and conservation-area properties across Dorset and can supply mix specifications and sample panels for Weymouth conservation officers where consent is required.
