Lime Wash Interior Painting FAQ
What are the disadvantages of lime wash?
Lime wash requires proper surface preparation and is best applied by professionals. It adheres best to porous, mineral-based surfaces and may not bond well to previously painted or synthetic finishes without proper treatment
How much does it cost to apply lime wash?
The cost of lime wash depends on factors such as surface condition, room size, and the desired level of finish. For an accurate quote, we recommend scheduling a personalized estimate based on your specific project.
Why choose lime wash over traditional paint?
Lime wash is eco-friendly, breathable, and naturally antimicrobial. It creates a soft, matte finish with organic movement and character that evolves beautifully over time, qualities that standard paints simply can’t replicate.
Can lime wash be applied to any surface?
Lime wash works best on porous surfaces such as plaster, brick, or raw drywall. If applied over previously painted or sealed surfaces, a mineral-based primer may be required to ensure proper adhesion and finish quality.
