jayc89 Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 We have a room that's back to brick, in some sections, around windows etc, you can see day light. We're unlikely to finish it off this year, so before winter sets in I'd like to to "something". As well as repointing the outside, I'm thinking of just a parge coat on the inside. Can you parge using lime (NHL) the same way you can with cement? Sloppy mix in a bucket with a stiff brush? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnMo Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 (edited) normal cement, and hydrated lime. I mixed mine as 1x 25kg bag of cement, 3x 25kg bags of building sand, and think it was about 2 to 3 shovels of lime. The lime gives a creamy consistency. Add enough water to make a double cream. Makes a mess, wear safety glasses Edited August 25, 2022 by JohnMo Old quote removed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
