Lime Based FIllers - Breathable Fillers & Plasters for Walls
Our lime plaster fillers are ideal to repair or patch lime plaster walls. Highly breathable, and suitable for repairs to old and new lime plasters. Unlike modern synthetic fillers, lime fillers allow moisture vapour to move naturally through the repair, helping to prevent trapped damp and surface failure.
Lime plastering has been predominantly for traditional houses and older homes, as traditionally walls were plastered with a lime mix before the more recent gypsum plaster took hold. Once plastered, use a plaster primer, and then use one of the many lime paints that we offer.
Lime plaster is having a resurgence over the last few years, predominately due to the renewed focus on sustainability, eco credentials, but also as lime plaster is naturally more breathable, absorbs carbon, and has anti mould and mildew protection due to slightly higher PH.
