These two Granite Built Terraced houses in Redruth suffered from low level damp.
The existing cement pointing had failed severely in areas and the ground level was slightly higher outside than inside.
The team set about removing these impermeable claddings and started digging for a land drainage system.
A suitable Lime mortar was chosen to complement the stone and its characteristics. On completion of the Lime pointing in Redruth, a land drainage system was connected to ensure moisture full below and away from the property.

This Grade II Listed Property in Truro was the third house Leslie Cornell Building Restoration Ltd were engaged on this street.
Our continued sympathetic Lime applications and professionalism, on and off site, ensure we are one of Cornwall’s leading Building Restoration Companies.
Once again we acted as agents, on behalf of our clients, to gain Listed Building Consent in Cornwall. On approval we set about removing the Cementitious pointing and render applications using hand tools to ensure minimal disruption to the fabric of the building.
Over many decades the Brick Arches over the door and windows had had non breathable paints applied. Carefully and sympathetically we removed this and repaired any damaged areas using a specially manufactured brick mortar.
Lime Mortar Re-pointing in Truro commenced using a blend of Natural Hydraulic Lime and Blended Sands. Low level areas could not be repointed so a Lime Render was introduced to ensure full breathability.
