Lime Repair Ltd is a Somerset firm specialising in the considered repair of old buildings. Its founder is a William Morris Craft Fellow. Clients range from private owners, developers and main contractors to building preservation bodies including The Landmark Trust, and the portfolio takes in listed buildings, manor houses, cottages, farmhouses and new eco builds. The firm’s approach is rooted in the behaviour of lime: pointing pre-1900 buildings in lime rather than cement, using breathable plasters to control internal moisture, and removing modern impermeable paints that trap water in walls.
Suitable for: listed and pre-1900 properties in Somerset needing lime work, damp diagnosis and associated fabric repairs from a single contractor.
Services: lime plastering; lime render and roughcast; lime pointing; limewash; decorative plasterwork conservation and new work; structural repairs to lintels and beams; chimney repairs and rebuilding; roofing, gutter and fascia repairs; damp diagnosis and remedy; limecrete floors; paint removal.
Location: Pylle, Shepton Mallet, Somerset.
