Long Crendon is a historic village located approximately 12 miles south of Aylesbury, nestled between the Chiltern Hills and featuring the iconic 14th-century church of St Mary the Virgin. The village is predominantly made up of Grade II listed Tudor and Georgian cottages, Victorian terraced homes, and period farmhouses, many with original lime plaster and traditional lath-and-plaster walls. Its leafy, conservation-minded character means that plaster restoration work requires sensitive handling and knowledge of heritage building practices.
Period properties in HP18 commonly suffer from damp-related plaster deterioration and settlement cracks due to the clay soil beneath the Chiltern foothills. Modern extensions in Long Crendon occasionally develop joint tape splitting and corner cracking from seasonal timber movement.
For Long Crendon's older properties, repair and patching of existing lime plaster is often the preferred option to preserve character and maintain heritage status. However, newer extensions and modern drywall installations may be more cost-effective to replace entirely if structural damage is extensive.
“Good experience overall. Took a few hours to hear back but the plasterer was professional, assessed the damp-damaged wall honestly and gave a realistic quote for the repair. Job done well.”
“Used this to compare quotes for re-skimming our lounge and hallway. Had 3 plasterers contact us the same day. Went with the middle quote and the finish is absolutely perfect. Highly recommend.”
“Needed external rendering quotes for our semi. Got three quotes within 24 hours — very different prices for similar spec. Really glad I used this rather than just calling one company.”
