Stonecraft Restoration Ltd
Lime is the oldest building technology still commonly used. It was used extensively by the Romans and is found in nearly all buildings built before the early 1900s. It is essential to use lime if you are restoring a building that was originally constructed with lime. Building with lime is a process that is simple, yet needs understanding. Lime is a lovely material to use, it is very forgiving, and inexpensive. Once you understand the material, and how it works, using it within your home will become a pleasure. We cover Munster and all of Ireland.
