Geranium Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 We want a sympathetic look on the outside of our house and I'm keen to use the traditional "chaux". At present we are down to the original mud brick. What should I be aware of and what costs could I be looking at (per square metre)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call a couple (or 3) Artisans local to you.However, don't consider using anything other than lime render on mud (cob) walls - cement-based render will destroy the wall.
