It is a legal requirement when working on listed or conservation status properties to faithfully restore the building in such a way as to preserve the buildings unique historical features.

Our experienced craftsmen possess all relevant knowledge and skills to complete a wide range of traditional building techniques these include:

Lime Mortar Brickwork

Unique Building Solutions undertake a variety of Lime Mortar pointing techniques which include tuck-point, penny roll, recessed flush and flushed joints. The chosen style of pointing will be dependent on the original finish of your building.

Stone and Flint Work

Stone masonry such as ragstone or flint are a standard fixture of many period properties regular tasks include repointing along with rebuilding stone or flint structures.

Lime Mortar Plastering

This highly skilled traditional plastering technique is a common task for the Unique team, Lime Mortar is perfect for an older property as it is more forgiving to the buildings natural movement.

The nature of the construction of older buildings sees frequent use of several types of soft stone which tend to move slightly. Lime Mortar reacts to movement in a different way to modern plaster. 

Flexible Approach

It is our policy to stay in constant communication with our customer this is particularly true of Period Restorations as plans will often change as the restoration process unfolds.

Each restoration is completed to the highest possible standard its is our policy to work on one room at a time this ensuring an excellent quality of finish throughout your project.
