Limestone cottages and old inns along the former coaching road, where soft stone and lime mortar need breathable finishes rather than plastic masonry paint.

Decorating in Aberford
We paint and decorate houses throughout Aberford, including Main Street, the bridge over the Cock Beck and the cottages round St Ricarius' church. Older stone houses here were built with lime mortar and plaster that need to breathe. We check what the walls are made of before choosing a paint, because the wrong finish can trap moisture and cause damp.
Many homes in villages like this are in conservation areas or listed, so outside work needs to respect the character of the street. We can use traditional colours and breathable finishes that suit the building.
Every job starts with a visit to look at the rooms, talk through colours and note any repairs, followed by a clear written quote. We sheet the floors, cover furniture and fittings, and clean up at the end of every day.

FAQs
Decorating in Aberford: questions
What paint should I use on an old stone cottage?
Usually a breathable finish such as limewash, mineral or clay paint, so moisture can escape through the walls. We check the walls before recommending a product.
Do you cover all of LS25?
Yes. We work throughout Aberford and the neighbouring areas, including Barwick-in-Elmet, Micklefield and Scholes.
