These guides answer the questions owners of old buildings actually ask us: what work costs, how long lime takes, which materials belong on a solid wall and why the previous 'fix' made the damp worse. Written from site experience, not sales copy.
- Costs — honest UK price ranges for lime plastering and rendering, and what moves them
- Materials — lime vs gypsum, cement render damage, breathable paints
- Repairs — lath and plaster ceilings, damp in solid-wall houses, bathrooms and kitchens
Every guide carries a published date and gets reviewed as prices and best practice move. If your question is not covered, ask — the next guide usually comes from a reader's building.
