About Limewash
The Beauty of Natural Mineral Coatings
Limewash is a natural coating made from slaked limestone — used on buildings for thousands of years, from Roman villas to European farmhouses. Unlike paint, limewash absorbs into masonry and bonds chemically with the surface.
The result is a breathable, luminous finish that won't peel, chip, or flake. It develops a beautiful patina over time and is completely non-toxic.

Common Questions
What Homeowners Ask
15–20 years with proper application. Unlike paint, limewash can be touched up without stripping — you apply a fresh coat directly over the existing finish.
Not directly. Limewash bonds with the masonry, so existing paint must be removed first. We handle the full process — stripping, prep, and application.
Yes — and it's actually better than paint. Limewash is breathable, allowing moisture from freeze-thaw cycles to escape. Paint traps moisture, causing brick to spall.
Fireplaces typically run $500–$1,500. Full exterior: $4,000–$12,000 depending on size. Every project is different — get a free estimate for exact pricing.
