This end of terrace property in Truro was suffering from damp issues. We, Leslie Cornell Building Restoration Ltd, were engaged to undertake works to bring the breathability back to this building.
After we removed the cement-based pointing applications, we re-pointed the exposed stonework with an appropriate breathable Lime Pointing application.
The Gable Elevation had been rendered with a cement-based application, so we carefully removed this and introduced a breathable Lime Bag-Rub application and Breathable Paint System.
Our Clients were so pleased with the results, they asked us to return to undertake some Lime Plastering works.
