Hello! I am an interior designer and have dealt with lime plaster walls in the past. I’ve connected with people for the purpose of repairing to proceed with the renovation. So if you’re looking for the answer to how to repair lime plaster walls, here it is!

Before you know all the treatment procedures, let me shed some light on what exactly is a lime plaster. It can be understood as a kind of mortar which finds its application in covering the internal walls’ and ceilings’ surfaces. This is a historical methodology which has been used for centuries. 

How to fix your lime plaster walls

  • Filling the imperfections

Hiding the cracks and holes for the purpose of lime plaster patch repair is pretty much the same process as for any other wall. You can use a variety of lime-based wall putty that are in the market. These are a step ahead of the usual fillers as they let your walls breathe. 

  • Lime Putty and Gypsum

You can make a compound for covering small areas of your lime-plastered wall. The compound is made with lime putty, gypsum and water. Mix them in the ratio of one part gypsum, half part water and three parts of lime putty. The methodology works in a way where you need to form the putty in the shape of a doughnut and add water to it. At last, sprinkle the gypsum on top. The water will be soaked up by the gypsum.

These are the two effective methods for repairing lime plaster walls. I hope this helps:)
