Many of my walls are back to brick due to failing original plaster so I’m about to begin plastering. On the external walls I’m planning the following:
1) Scud followed by leveling coat using Saint Astier NHL2.
2) 40 mm woodfibre wet therm boards affixed directly without the board render/adhesive.
3) 8mm lime (probably St Astier R100) approx in total over boards.
My question relates to the internal walls. I was thinking of using a thermal lime plaster to reduce chances of cold bridging. Obviously this plaster won’t have the same depth as the external walls. Does this seem like a reasonable plan? I also have a couple of rooms where I’m not using any IWI in order to keep decorative features. Would the thermal lime plaster such as Saint Astier Novaskin be a good choice in these rooms? I know some of you would advice lime putty but due to the tradespeople I can find and the long curing times, it’s not really an option. I’m trying to find a good alternative solution to non hydraulic lime. Many thanks.
