welcome to limework conservation
 
limework conservation specialise in the building, restoration and conservation of contemporary, ecological and period homes, buildings and structures using natural products.

 

applying traditional building techniques to structures using locally sourced British lime and clay products, we aim to help preserve, restore and enhance our built environment by producing environmentally friendly building solutions to modern building problems. 

 

we are expert in the use of clay plasters in wetrooms, lime plasters, lime pointing, stonework, stone repair, bespoke carpentry, green oak timber-frame work, tuck pointing, lime washing and mineral or natural paints, straw bale renders and much more.

 

  

 

Do not fear to be eccentric in opinion, for every opinion now accepted was once eccentric - Bertrand Russell  

 

lime and other natural products can be used on new build, ecological and period properties - modern, eco and classic - contemporary, green and heritage.   

 

 

To benefit from the beautiful, healthy, environmentally friendly natural products that we specialise in using, your home doesn't necessarily need to be a listed period property. Lime mortars, natural clay or lime plasters coupled with plant or mineral paints are equally at home within contemporary new build homes, Elizabethan  timber frame houses or an eco-friendly straw bale structure.

With the ever growing need for us to find ways of reducing our carbon footprint, the use of carbon-neutral and/or carbon-free building materials is a step closer towards that goal.

 

Wherever possible we use locally sourced sustainable building materials and local suppliers of British products, helping to reduce travel miles and help support local business economies. 

 

    

 

Based in Somerset with easy access to the M4 & M5 motorways, we are ideally situated to cover Avon, Somerset, Wiltshire, Gloucestershire, the South and the South West of England.
