Textured masonry and pebbledash
We treat with a fungicidal wash, repair cracks and blown patches, then apply masonry coatings by roller or spray. Pebbledash is often best sprayed for full coverage into the stones.
Lime and breathable coatings
Older Cornish homes were built to breathe. We use lime coatings and breathable mineral paints, including Johnstone's Sol Silicate, which we applied over primed bare lime render on a cottage we were proud to work on. Stone and masonry sealers are chosen to be breathable on lime.
Coastal protection
For homes in the firing line of sea spray we offer hydrophobic and self-cleaning coatings that shed water and resist green growth, and masonry paints with biocides and anti-fungal inhibitors such as Zinsser AllWeather.
Repairs first
We carry out masonry repairs before painting, so the coating isn't hiding problems. Read which paint suits a coastal home.
