Natural finishes for Guelph's stone and brick homes
Guelph is known for its limestone buildings. Downtown, Exhibition Park, the Ward and Old University have many 19th and early 20th century homes with stone or brick and original plaster. Lime finishes come from the same material family: Limewash Paint and Venetian Plaster are made from lime and breathe with these walls.
Stone and plaster walls
Limestone and lime plaster walls need a breathable finish so moisture can leave. Limewash keeps the texture of the wall visible and can be refreshed later. Marmorino gives a smoother, stone-like matte.
