Why use lime on your stone building in East Lothian?
Lime Has been used as a blinder for stone and brick and as render for over thousands years. The knowledge of its properties and how to use it has only been lost to current practice in the uk in the last 100 years. Lime is also permeable were cement is not, this means that the vapour can pass through them at an almost imperceptible level, which is a healthier option for stone building as it regulates humidity
Don't hesitate to get in touch and ask more question about lime mortar.
Testimonials
Stewart & Team explained the works in detail from the quote to finish, as Stewart has a very small team of hardworking & knowledgeable men, it felt like a more personal service unlike the larger company's based in East Lothian. We will be looking to hiring ESM for future works
Zara Inkster
Excellent service from start to finish, Stewart and his team had a real knowledge into there trade, I was impressed to find out when speaking to his guys that they all had attended courses on aspects of the lime centres and were not just labourers sent in to point my house without any skill.
Tony Flanagan
I have worked with ESM Stone Ltd on several projects now and all have been to a very good standard. The Contracts Manager Stewart is very easy to deal with and know his stuff.
