Lime-Based Plaster Finishes

Lime plaster is a traditional building material that has been used for centuries to finish interior and exterior walls. It is made from limestone that is heated to a high temperature to create quicklime, which is then mixed with water and an aggregate, such as sand, to create a plaster. Lime plaster is known for its durability, breathability, and ability to regulate humidity, making it a popular choice for historic and traditional buildings.

At American Plaster Finishes, we specialize in the application of lime plaster. We use traditional techniques and high-quality materials to ensure that our lime plaster finishes are of the highest quality. Our team is skilled and experienced in working with lime plaster, and we understand the unique properties and characteristics of this natural building material.

One of the benefits of using lime plaster is its ability to breathe. Unlike modern synthetic plasters, lime plaster allows moisture to evaporate, preventing the buildup of mold and mildew. This makes it an ideal choice for damp or humid environments.

Lime plaster is also known for its durability and long-lasting finish. It is a highly durable and hard-wearing material that can withstand the wear and tear of daily life. Lime plaster is also easy to repair and maintain, making it a great choice for both residential and commercial properties.

We offer a wide range of lime plaster finishes, from traditional smooth finishes to textured finishes such as marmorino and scagliola. We work closely with our clients to understand their preferences and create a finish that fits their style and budget.
