Choosing lime mortar in Chipping
On site to meet with Lancashire Lime and view samples of lime mortar for the conservation and restoration of a Grade II listed property in Chipping, Lancashire.
Using the correct mortar is exceptionally important during restoration works. Cement based mortars can be problematic for historic buildings, trapping in moisture and causing damage to the walls. Using lime based mortar allows the building to breathe, helping to preserve the structure for decades to come.
