What is lime plastering, and why choose it?
Lime plastering is a traditional plaster made from lime putty, which is breathable and flexible, making it ideal for older or heritage buildings. It allows moisture to escape from walls, preventing dampness and prolonging the life of the building. Choose lime plastering if you want an eco-friendly, durable, and historically appropriate finish for your home.

What is silicone rendering, and how does it differ from other types of rendering?
Silicone rendering is a modern, weather-resistant render that provides excellent protection against water penetration while still allowing the walls to breathe. It is ideal for homes in areas with heavy rain or extreme weather conditions and offers a long-lasting, low-maintenance finish that resists cracking and fading.

What is the difference between skimming and dry lining?
Skimming is the process of applying a thin coat of plaster to a wall or ceiling to create a smooth surface, often used as a final finish. Dry lining, on the other hand, involves fixing plasterboard to walls or ceilings to provide a flat surface before plastering or painting. Dry lining is quicker to install, while skimming provides a more traditional plastered look.

Why is lime pointing important for older buildings?
Lime pointing involves filling the gaps between bricks or stones with a lime-based mortar, essential for older buildings. It helps the structure "breathe" by allowing moisture to evaporate, preventing trapped dampness and structural damage. Using modern cement in these buildings can lead to cracking and water damage, so lime pointing is a much better solution for maintaining their integrity.

What is floor screeding, and why is it needed?
Floor screeding involves applying a layer of sand and cement mixture to create a level surface before laying your final flooring. It ensures a smooth, even base, particularly important for underfloor heating systems or where a perfect finish is required for tile, carpet, or wood flooring installation.
