Why Lime Plaster is the Ideal Choice for Historic Buildings

At Jordaya Contracting, we specialise in restoring historic and period properties using traditional materials that respect the original structure while enhancing durability and energy efficiency. One of the most effective solutions for older buildings is lime plastering—a breathable, flexible, and long-lasting material that has been used for centuries.

The Benefits of Lime Plaster for Period Properties

Many older buildings were constructed using materials that need to breathe. Unlike modern cement-based renders, lime plaster allows moisture to evaporate naturally, preventing damp and structural damage. This makes it the ideal choice for listed buildings, barn conversions, and heritage properties.

Key benefits include:

  • · Breathability – Reduces condensation and damp issues
  • · Flexibility – Moves with the building, reducing cracks
  • · Sustainability – A natural, eco-friendly material
  • · Historic Accuracy – Maintains the character of older properties

Jordaya Contracting has completed numerous lime plastering projects across the Midlands, including the restoration of period cottages, barn conversions, and listed townhouses. Our expertise ensures that each project is completed to the highest standard, preserving the beauty and integrity of the building while improving insulation and longevity.

Recent Work: Sustainable Insulation for a Period Property

One of our recent projects involved using Diathonite Eco-Cork Render to enhance the thermal performance of a beautiful listed building. The property's solid stone walls, while full of charm, required a modern approach to improve insulation and energy efficiency.
