Fulham Palace

Recently SSHC undertook a major programme of repairs to the external facade of Fulham Palace. The use of hot limes was specified by the architect. A suitable area was created for mixing of the hot lime mortar, this was co-ordinated with the main contractor. We took the opportunity to run workshops onsite to train other memebers of the SSHC team in the  mixing and use of hot lime.

The work included: the removal of cementitious pointing, cleaning using the ThermaTech system & the replacement of inappropriate, spalled, plastic repaired bricks with hand -made wood fired ones. These were bedded and pointed using hot lime mortar. In some areas double-struck pointing was also specified.
