Advice re starting lime plastering

[goldsworthys]

Hi All, I have recently started lime plastering my cottage (circa 400 years old) and enjoy doing it. It has led to me thinking of changing my career to do lime pointing and plastering.
Does anyone have any advice for getting started in the industry? I am based in Surrey.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
Simon

cant help you on that but its a sore job on the hands /also lime pointing is a summer time job only

Hard work, heavy material, very satisfying when you get it right. Good luck.

I only get about 2 lime jobs per year. most people want something quick and cheap. not slow and expensive.
