Lime Rendering & Lime Plastering Wadebridge
External Lime Rendering
The Front and Gable Elevations of this cottage had been rendered with a non-breathable cement-based render, which meant that moisture was being trapped within the stone walls.
The first phase of our works was to remove the existing cement-based renders to expose the stonework. This element of our works meant that stone walls were already starting to breathe again.
Slate Dropper Course
The cottage had no existing slate dropper course to the Gable Elevation. A slate dropper course diverts rainwater away for the substrate and limits the amount of moisture from entering the wall.
We supplied and introduced a slate dropper course to the Gable Elevation roof verges.
Internal Lime Plastering
To further aid the breathability of the cottage we removed the existing cement-based plaster applications from the internal faces of the external walls, and introduced 3-coat Lime Plaster applications.
