  • A damp building can cost a considerable amount of
    time and money to put right. Damp allows mold and
    fungi to prosper, which is directly linked to
    respiratory problems and affect asthma sufferers
    . Old buildings, are most vulnerable to damp, due
    to being built with porous material such as cob,
    stone and rab, which will hold moisture within
    the walls of the structure.

  • The flow of air through an old traditional
    building would have been much considerable  as a
    result of draughts from windows and doors. By
    using lime, which is breathable, will allow a
    degree of moisture to pass through the wall.
    Where as Gypsum, which is generally used as a
    finishing plaster, does not have this ability.

4
  • Lime plaster is the single best weapon we have in
    combating damp in such a situation. Having to
    Leave doors and windows a jar is an costly option
    during the winter months when the problem is at
    its worst.

  • Otterbein lime plasters not only offer
    sustainable benefits, but breathability and
    flexibility for the building, they can also
    reduce site times by a massive 75 when compared
    to traditional application techniques.

7
  • They both contribute to a healthy internal
    environment and are economical, practical
    alternatives to plasters and renders containing
    gypsum or patent cements that have little or no
    vapour permeable qualities. They are designed for
    spray or hand application as a two coat system.
    Suitable substrates include brickwork, blockwork
    or concrete.

  • With many old properties, insulation and
    condensation can be a big contributing factor of
    mold, our breathable lime plaster insulation is
    the perfect solution for insulating old houses
    and even new builds.

  • Our insulation is very unique, as it allows flex
    with slight movement and can be used in damp
    areas and only takes 4cm of space. Having a
    breathable insulated building will consume less
    energy whilst retaining heat, which will save
    you on heating costs, after all heating accounts
    for at least 75 of the energy use of the average
    household.
