Suppliers of lime for making limewash - Concentrating on sustainable masonry, all products are of top quality, carefully selected and sourced from reputable suppliers throughout the UK. The development of the product range is ongoing, to ensure it includes the best natural building materials as they become available.
Limetec Lime Mortars - During the last 25 years, Lime has enjoyed a steady revival for repairs to historic buildings. The soft, porous and flexible nature of lime mortars and plasters is now universally recognised as being vital to maintain the traditional breathing performance of old buildings. In addition, an increasing number of architects, engineers, surveyors and builders are now beginning to realise that lime has many benefits to offer in new construction. Lime Technology (working with CPI EuroMix) has developed a solution to this problem in the form of dry, pre-mixed hydraulic lime mortar, produced using factory precision batching techniques to tried and tested recipes gained through years of experience. For large projects and building developments, where flexibility and vapour permeability are required, mortar can be supplied in silos which can hold up to 22 cubic metres or 30 tonnes of dry mix. The silo produces consistent, ready mixed and ready to use mortar at the touch of a button. For smaller projects, the mortar is available in 25kg bags and can be mixed in a conventional drum mixer. There are two standard mortars which cover a range of likely applications both for conservation and new build: Limetec eminently hydraulic mortar - For use where a higher level of durability is required i.e. masonry exposed to severe weather and underground work. Limetec moderately hydraulic mortar - For most normal applications i.e. cavity brickwork, blockwork and stonework.

Lime Earth Paints UK - Manufactures of Lime Paint, Lime Mortars and Plasters. Traditional plaster work and repairs to old buildings. Lime washes are one of the oldest traditional paints. Made from putty lime, they're environmentally friendly, absorbing CO2 from the atmosphere to carbonate (harden), thus helping to reduce one of the greenhouse gases. Traditionally, lime washes required regular maintenance, as without the addition of binders, such as casein (milk protein) or tallow (animal fat), they had a relatively short life as a result of flaking or powdering. Regularly painted over however, the additional layers of limewater wash (lime wash) would consolidate the layers beneath and eventually build up in thickness to form what was effectively a lime render, lasting hundreds of years. The porosity of lime allows moisture to evaporate out of all walls rapidly, making it a suitable paint in all areas where there is moisture and as an exterior paint, its alkalinity naturally inhibits mould growth. Most modern paints prevent moisture from entering the wall and from leaving the building as water gets behind the paint, through expansion and contraction cracks, rising damp or water leaks. Moisture trapped beneath the surface causes blistering and further decoration of the wall if left resulting in spalling brickwork or powdering plaster. Designers and builders should start specifying the use of lime to help buildings breathe again, learning from the success of our medieval builders in this age of technology.

Producers and suppliers of lime for making limewash, natural paints - Materials for Professional Masonry Restoration
and Sustainable Building Systems  - LimeWorks.us is committed to providing the resources needed for performing professional masonry restoration and building sustainable structures in an environmentally conscious and sustainable way. Many historic masonry buildings which are over 100 years old are just receiving their first repointing work. These old buildings were usually built with only lime and sand for mortar. The well built historic buildings are considered sustainable due to the longevity of their service as opposed to the waste caused by rapid cycles of obsolescence in buildings such as the modern strip mall. The details in how all substantial and beautiful historic masonry buildings were made allows many of these old structures to last for centuries and even for millennia throughout the world. Modern Portland cement mortars have had many known failures as a primary or gauged-in binder to lime mortar used in masonry preservation efforts of these old masonry buildings.

St.Astier Natural Hydraulic Limes UK - Setra Marketing Ltd. 16 Cavendish Drive Esher Surrey KT10 0QE0800 7839014
enquiries@stastier.co.uk
Distributors of St.Astier natural hydraulic limes for making limewash - Lime Mortar Render & Plaster from St Astier - St Astier Natural Hydraulic Limes (NHL) and derivative products have been produced by the same families since 1851. The mineralogical characteristics of the raw materials, the manufacturing process and the quality controls are such that users are assured of the constant performance of the products. The experience acquired over the years is shared with the user through the assistance available from the Technical Department and from carefully chosen specialist distributors, able to assess the type of lime mortar, plaster or render required. This is especially important in Conservation and Restoration, where mortars should be project specific in order to ensure their compatibility with existing materials and the fabric of the buildings. In new build St.Astier Limes have developed a range of binders and ready mixed mortars combining all the characteristics required by today’s builder in terms of speed of setting, strength, elasticity, plasticity, low capillarity and shrinkage, with the breathability and aesthetic quality of lime mortars. The result is that these lime mortars are becoming the obvious alternative to cement mortars also in the new build and eco build sectors. The ecological benefits of lime mortars such as CO2 re-absorption and condensation control provide vital answers to some of today’s environmental and energy saving requirements which cannot be ignored by the professions and trades involved in the protection of the built heritage and in the construction of our new living environment.
