\u201cIt\u2019s an emotional rollercoaster losing your home in a fire,\u201d says Alex Coppock, architect, Communion Architects. \u201cThe resurrection project was all about recreating a healthy home than honoured the cottage\u2019s traditional beauty.<\/p>\n

The thatched cottage in Worcestershire suffered an extremely bad fire. This left the downstairs of the property severely damaged, the second floor almost lost and the roof completely demolished.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe historic fabric and traditional structure of the part-Medieval, part-Victorian cottage had been almost destroyed,\u201d says Alex. \u201cIt needed a lot of care to restore it to its former glory.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs different areas of the property were in different conditions, designing the right solution was challenging. It was difficult to know where to start. We worked with Timothy Smith Builders Ltd to bring the project to life.\u201d<\/p>\n

Matching tradition and heritage<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe cottage was a listed building, so we collaborated with the conservation officer and followed Historic England guidance to ensure we preserved the historical elegance of the property and best practice,\u201d says Alex.<\/p>\n

\u201cBreathability was also incredibly important. Much of the water damage from the fire had dried out, but the original structure of the building only contained an \u2018outer leaf\u2019 wall.<\/p>\n

\u201cAn \u2018outer leaf wall\u2019 means that as soon as the outside wall gets wet, the inside wall becomes vulnerable to damp.<\/p>\n

\u201cProtecting the building, called for a way to keep it dry, healthy and comfortable for a long time to come. We specified a woodfibre board with a lime plaster internally and lime render externally. The cottage was originally built using lime-based products and had stood the property in good stead all these years until fire tore it apart.<\/p>\n

\u201cLime Green<\/a> was recommended to us by a friend who\u2019d used their mortars, plasters and renders on several occasions and found them to be ideal.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey gave us a \u2018one-stop-shop\u2019 for all the lime-based materials we needed: Internal Warmshell Insulation (IWI) system (woodfibre insulation boards topped with Solo lime plaster) and an external lime render.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had some great technical advice from the Lime Green team. They helped us understand our lime-based options, how different products and materials work together, and how to get the best results. Their products make lime very easy to use.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is so good to return the cottage back to its former glory, with modern versions of the honest materials that would have been used in the Medieval and Victorian eras.\u201d<\/p>\n

Restoring traditional beauty<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019d used traditional lime products before, but the process was always much slower \u2013 waiting for up to seven days between coats while the material fully dries out,\u201d says Ian Miller, master plasterer.<\/p>\n

\u201cLime Green\u2019s materials were much quicker to use \u2013 just put a coat on, notch with a trowel, embed mesh all over, apply another 3mm on top, flatten, leave for 1.5 hours and finish with a trowel. That\u2019s it \u2013 you do the wall once, instead of up to three times, as with other lime plasters I\u2019ve used.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe products \u2013 Solo (one coat lime plaster) and Ultra (insulating base coat) \u2013 are great and easy to work with. Once you\u2019ve got the consistency right, they\u2019re easy to apply and the finish is absolutely fantastic.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe homeowner is so delighted with the finish, they and the architect have agreed just to seal the walls and to leave them unpainted \u2013 something you only usually do if you\u2019re polishing or marbling plaster.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a learning experience at the start, as you begin to understand how to use the lime plaster, but it\u2019s incredibly easy to pick up. If it does start to dry, you can damp it down and it comes back to life again. It\u2019s very workable.\u201d<\/p>\n

An elegant finish<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe homeowner is thrilled,\u201d says Alex. \u201cThe project has delivered the best of both worlds: a restored home, using traditional materials, which means it will stay dry and warm.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe home looks absolutely beautiful. Everyone involved couldn\u2019t be happier with the results,\u201d finishes Alex.<\/p>\n

\u201cLime Green\u2019s experience and knowledge in regard to the project specifications, and the team\u2019s practical assistance on site, means we\u2019ll definitely be recommending them for future projects.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been a privilege working with a team of talented and experienced contractors, hand in hand with Lime Green, to give this historic cottage the opportunity to continue to be a beautiful dwelling for anyone who becomes part of its future story for hundreds of years to come.\u201d<\/p>\n
