Lime Mortar Stone Repairs

🔧 Why Choose Lime Mortar for Stone Repairs?

Lime mortar is a traditional building material used for centuries before cement was introduced. It offers critical benefits for the health of natural stone and the long-term durability of a structure:

✅ Breathability – Lime allows moisture to escape, preventing stone decay and damp issues.
✅ Flexibility – Unlike rigid cement, lime moves with the building, reducing cracking.
✅ Reversibility – Lime-based repairs are easier to remove and rework, making them ideal for listed or historic buildings.
✅ Compatibility – Our lime mortar mix is specially formulated to match the composition and porosity of traditional masonry.

Using cement in stone repairs can trap moisture, leading to internal decay, cracking, and long-term structural damage — this is why all of our work is cement-free.
