Organic Plastering are historic plasterers in Mendip and Somerset surrounding areas, specialising in rendering with sustainable and environmentally friendly materials, for domestic and commercial clients. Historic lime plastering in Mendip has many advantages over sand and cement method as used so commonly now in construction, such as:
- Permeable – regulates humidity more effectively
- Flexible – does not crack with seasonal changes
- Soft – plaster or rendering should not be harder than the backing surface
- Reduces moisture – will easily hold excess moisture from a wet or damp area, and release quickly as the humidity drops
- Has organic and soft effect – gives an extremely breathable finish to any surface
Lime is the common ingredient and this can be mixed with a number of different aggregates to make a plaster that is both sustainable and friendly to the environment and our health.
People often assume that historic lime plaster in Mendip is for old straw buildings only but that is not the case now, a lot of new build and bespoke projects want to use organic and sustainable rendering because of its benefits. Some the types of buildings we work on include:
