As Evenii expand we are constantly building our skills and confidence within the roofing sector, some of the Evenii teams this week attended Lime Mortar Training, Eden Hot Lime Mortar offer training courses for Builders, Architects and enthusiasts in the use of lime mortars.
The course is carried out within Cumbria offering a very much hands-on experience and training in the use of Lime Mortars. The application of traditional Lime Mortar is the hardest discipline to master, and without instruction can result in costly failure.
Some of the theory covered types of Lime, aggregates, why lime works, and when it won’t work, problems to look for in houses, cement, protection, gable ends, chimney pointing/rendering, mortar mixing, paints and limewash, natural Insulation, breathable floor systems and French drains.
Practical session included, making hot mixed mortars, making hot limewashes, pointing, plastering/rendering, lime skim work. roof parging/torching, timber lath work, lime Insulation.
Feedback from the teams “very informative and a brilliant insight toward using lime mortars”
