Hydraulic lime render has recently been re-discovered after almost a century of being ignored as a mainstream building material by the majority of house builders and property renovation companies.

The natural materials used mean the environmental impact of producing and applying hydraulic lime is virtually carbon neutral and this is only one of its many advantages over cement based renders and mortars.

Amongst the many benefits of using a lime render/mortar are:

1. Fully flexible so does not crack as the buiding structure expands and contracts

2. Keeps the underlying substrate ( eg timber frame) dry by absorbing wind driven rain and releasing moisture

3. Maintains a healthy internal climate by allowing the walls to breathe and moisture to escape outside

4. Aesthetically pleasing with a natural textured finish with shading that helps older properties maintain their character

5. Can be used as part of an external wall insulation system to reduce heating costs
