Plastering, rendering and damp proofing in Steyning

Steyning is full of old buildings with soft brick, flint and timber frames, and almost all of them were plastered with lime originally. Cement render and modern plaster applied over the years is the most common reason those walls start holding water and the timbers start to suffer.

We take failed plaster back to the background, use lime-based finishes where a building needs to breathe, and repair the brick and flint underneath. On the outside, render and pointing are matched to the age of the property rather than brought up to a modern flat finish.
