Paying homage to its heritage, owner Jim Egan added, I
chose the shade Oatmeal because this was a close match
to the original colour and in keeping with its history as a
former farmhouse. The durability of Silicate Masonry
Paint was an added bonus so I don’t have to worry about
repainting again any time soon’.
Using our Silicate Masonry Paint and Silicate Primer was
really simple meaning the only challenge the team at
Bramhill Builders faced was ‘an owl who poked its head
out of the gable to see what was going on’.
Impressed with their experience using our products Steve
tells us ‘The paint is of a good quality, workable
consistency and covers well’. Bramhill Builders specify
Earthborn for all their lime render projects and Claypaint
for internal work too. ‘The products are great value for
money and the customer service and technical support
are excellent’.
Silicate Masonry Paint is a durable and highly breathable
alternative to conventional masonry paint and lime wash
when used with Silicate Primer. Available in 48 beautiful
shades and drying to a classic matt finish, it's perfect for
renovation work on historic buildings.
