Three Coat Lime Traditional Renders

Three Coat Lime Traditional Renders

Our skilled craftsmen specialise in traditional lime plastering and restoration, applying multi-coat lime render systems with precision. On solid walls, the render is built in three coats:

Scratch/key coat – grips the substrate

Body coat – levels the wall and builds thickness

Finishing coat – smoothed or textured to suit the period style

Traditional Lath & Plaster Systems

For lath & plaster, we use timber laths fixed to the building’s timber framework, interwoven where needed, and applied with lime-based plaster in layers. Each layer sets naturally, producing a durable, breathable finish that moves with the building and reduces cracking.

This method preserves the character of period and listed buildings, combining authentic materials with modern craftsmanship to ensure a long-lasting, high-quality finish.
