🏡 Project Feature: Traditional Lime Plaster Restoration – Stairwell, Dorset
As a trusted construction company in Dorset, we were called in to address a common issue in older properties—blown lime plaster in a stairwell. This kind of deterioration is often the result of trapped moisture behind non-breathable materials, which is why choosing the right method of repair is crucial, especially in period homes.
We carefully removed the damaged plaster back to the original substrate and reinstated the surface using traditional lime plaster. Known for its breathable properties, lime plaster allows moisture to pass through the walls naturally, preventing further damage and helping to preserve the building’s structural integrity.
Using time-honoured techniques and high-quality materials, we restored the stairwell with care and respect for the building’s heritage. The finish is both durable and authentic—bringing the space back to life while allowing it to breathe as it was originally intended.
This project is a great example of the thoughtful, skilled approach we take as a building company in Dorset. Whether it’s restoration, renovation, or bespoke carpentry, Measure Twice delivers craftsmanship you can trust.
