10. Inspecting Lime Wash applied to Listed Building & Cast Iron Guttering installation.

Phil made it to Lancaster today to look a the Cast Iron guttering and the #lime washing to the Lime Render. The building is a 1708 Quakers Meeting House. Last year we removed the hard cement render and applied a lime render to the masonry. Unfortunately the #lime #render did not dry in time to apply the limewash last year.
We are now lime washing the building in 5 coats. The guys onsite are also installing the #cast #iron #gutters from yesterdays video.

Great job, guys💪🏼
How do these unforseen situations like the render refusing to dry affect your finish deadline? I presume there is a set deadline? Do you get penalised, financially or otherwise, for not finishing in time?

[@UKRestorationServices]

Hi, yes we are contracted under JCT for completion dates etc. However, it can be adjusted if circumstances arise. No penalties, the architects know the risks of working with historic buildings. We had a meeting before we started back and agreed a new completion date.

Could you have applied the lime wash hot onto the lime render before it had fully dried?

[@UKRestorationServices]

Thanks for the comment. Added a few bits in the next video talking about your comment applying it hot. However, i would not advise painting lime render that has not dried. The problem is the limewash will not carbonate due to the damp render feeding it moisture. If you have a frost over the winter months the limewash will blister due to the high water content.

@@UKRestorationServices Ah, I see, thank you. I'll look out for the next video too. :)
