Going green – a truly sustainable and long lasting finish

The exterior of this handsome farmhouse was repaired with lime about 25 years ago – a pioneering project

One of the pine ends was protected with an excellent example of slate hanging and the other walls had been flush pointed with lime mortar and limewashed.  However, by 2024 the limewash was in need of some TLC.  Celtic Sustainables in Cardigan were able to provide us with a selection of green pigments and we were able to match the existing colour exactly.  The house and the previous lime-works are both now ready for the next 25 years.
