Bricks The Bulmer Brick and Tile Company

Lime

The Bulmer Brick and Tile Co are stockists of Singleton Birch Natural Hydraulic Limes and Lime Putty. Hydraulic lime is available in NHL2, NHL3.5 and NHL5 strengths, and is supplied 25kg bags or in bulk tonne bags. Lime putty is available in 40kg (30l) tubs with lids. They also stock a specially fine lime putty for pointing fully fine gauged arch work.

Lime is a natural material most suited for use when laying our bricks as it has a natural strength. Unlike modern cements it allows some 'movement' in the structure. Most conservation work today calls for the use of lime mortars or renders and Bulmer Brick and Tile always try to keep a good stock of lime in their lime barn.

Also available is a wide range of finish coat material plus horse and goat hair for plaster work.
