#Lime Plaster

Why use lime plaster? 🤔 • it’s a BREATHABLE material which means it helps prevent damp - this is essential in period properties like our Victorian home 🌬 • it is an ECO-FRIENDLY option in comparison to other types of modern plaster, since it requires less energy to produce and lime also has the ability to absorb carbon dioxide from the environment 🌎 • it acts a bit like a natural dehumidifier, meaning it can help improve AIR QUALITY 🫧 • it isn’t as prone to cracking as other types of plaster since it’s a more FLEXIBLE material 🤸🏻‍♀️ • MODERN formulas mixed with lime are now available with faster curing times and easier application vs traditional lime plaster and techniques 🙌🏼 • I won’t say this is totally beginner friendly - but as someone who’s plastered with Gypsum a few times, it’s totally doable to learn and try at home! 🛠 Follow me to see how our lime plastering progresses at our Victorian home reno project 🏡 And check out my Stories where I’ll be talking more about different types of plaster over the coming days! #myrenostory #loverenovate #beforeandafterhome #diyhomedecor #fixerupperstyle #myrenostory #victorianrenovation #mydailyrenovation #limeplaster #limeplastering #VictorianHome #MyPeriodHomeStyle #PeriodHomesOfInsta #MyPeriodInterior #OriginalFeatures #VictorianRenovation #plastering #diyers

Lime plaster breathable finish. This traditional lime plaster finish allows walls to breathe naturally, improving indoor air quality and preventing moisture build-up. Its eco-friendly composition ensures durability while creating a soft, natural texture that ages beautifully over time.

Second coat of the lime plaster and we learnt that I’m going to need a lot more practise before I can pass as a plasterer 😂 We also learnt that second coat was finished with a churn brush rather than scratch coat which creates a more gentle key. Extra time was also taken with levelling of the walls as best as possible, so where the walls were uneven, more plaster was applied to try and create a more level and even wall. Lastly, the corners were rounded to give a soft edge 😊 #homerenovation #homerenovations #homereno #englishcountryhouse #countryhome #countryhouse #periodhome #listedbuilding #limeplaster #plaster #plastering #plasterwalls

Why you shouldn’t skim over lime plaster with gypsum in a period home 👇 It’s a common quick-fix - but one that often causes more harm than good. Lime plaster is ‘breathable’, for want of a better word. It allows moisture to pass through the walls and evaporate naturally, which is essential in old houses built without modern damp-proof courses. Gypsum plaster, on the other hand, is far less forgiving. When you skim over lime with gypsum, you seal the surface. That trapped moisture has nowhere to go - it builds up behind the gypsum, leading to blistering, mould, damp patches, and even structural damage over time. Worse still, lime and gypsum expand and contract at different rates. So even a hairline crack in the gypsum skim can let in moisture and trap it beneath, accelerating the damage. The result? A pristine-looking finish that fails within a few years, taking the underlying lime (and often the historic fabric of your wall) down with it. If your walls were built to breathe, let them. Use lime-compatible materials that respect the way old houses work. #OldHouseRenovation #PeriodProperty #LimePlaster #TraditionalBuilding #HeritageRestoration #ListedBuilding #BuildingConservation #NaturalBuildingMaterials #BreathableWalls #LimeNotGypsum #HistoricHomes #ConservationArchitecture #MoistureManagement #RenovationTips #OldHouseLove

When building a home with natural materials lime plaster is one of the best options for plastering your walls. Lime plaster can absorb and release moisture which acts as a natural humidity control, it provides great protection from rain on exterior walls, and has a high pH that prevents mold growth. This workshop was taught by Simon Gonzales from @texascobco, a leading expert in lime plastering, at the @havenearthpma trade school. @texascobco and @therealnesspreserve offer their own line of beautiful plastering materials called @earthsidematerials. Simon and Haven Earth also offer a full online course on lime plastering which can be found on the Haven Earth website. #plaster #limeplaster #hempcrete #naturalbuilding #sustainability #bioconstrução #hemp #offgrid

Limewash or lime plaster? Both create stunning, natural finishes, it just depends on application. Limewash is easier for DIY since it’s applied with a brush and goes further per gallon, while plaster requires a trowel and more skill but delivers rich depth and texture. At Brush & Trowel we carry Meoded Limewash along with a full range of lime plasters from Meoded and Firmolux- each offering unique textures, durability, and character. #limewash #limewashpdx #limewashpaint #limewashwalls #brushandtrowel #limeplaster #venetianplaster #plasterovereverything #plasterart #plaster #pdxinteriordesigners #interiordesign #pdxartist #pdxart #pdxhomes #homerenovationideas #portlandpainter
