Ballynatray House, in one of the most picturesque river settings in the country, looking amazing as ever and glowing with our breathable paint in a warm ochre colour.
Another iconic building in Cork recently completed. The Courthouse Chambers with many hundreds of bricks repaired, and a complete lime re-point with Secil lime, expertly executed by Kieren & Mike and all the lads at Ahern Bros.
So this is what happens when foil-backed PIR insulated plaster board is attached to solid stone walls in Ireland; mould, rot and trapped dampness. Unfortunately it’s all too common. Check out the alternatives at one of our Insulating Old Buildings workshops this summer.
Even with the clouds looming in the background Fota looks impressive with it’s new Secil Lime Render and Silicate Paint. Lovely job by Kenneth Sisk & Summerhill
Two of our Claypaint colours; Daisy Chain and Hippo Hooray. Unusual contrast but we think it works! Earthborn Claypaint has zero voc’s so very healthy and with full breathability, perfect for lime plaster.
Blossoms in Pilmore on this beautiful April evening. Hoping for a hot summer and a bumper crop; Our little pet project away form the world of lime and building conservation.
