Frequently Asked Questions

Do you have experience with listed buildings in Edinburgh?

Yes, we have over 25 years experience working on listed buildings and heritage properties throughout Edinburgh. We understand conservation requirements and work closely with Historic Environment Scotland and Edinburgh Council.

What traditional techniques do you use?

We use lime mortar pointing, traditional lime plastering, stone repair and replacement, timber frame repairs, and period-appropriate joinery techniques. Our craftsmen are trained in heritage building methods.

Can you help with listed building consent?

Yes, we can assist with listed building consent applications, liaise with conservation officers, and ensure all proposed work meets heritage requirements and receives necessary approvals.

Why is lime mortar important for heritage buildings?

Lime mortar is breathable, allowing moisture to escape from solid stone walls. Modern cement mortars trap moisture, causing damage. Lime mortar is essential for maintaining historic buildings properly.

How much does heritage property restoration cost?

Costs vary significantly based on the scope of work and materials required. Heritage work typically costs 20-40% more than standard renovation due to specialist materials and techniques. We provide detailed quotes after assessment.
