From using lime in the renovation of period farmhouses, to statement decorative work in stately homes, Sean’s experience has earned him a respected reputation throughout the traditional plastering community.

As well as at Cornish Lime, Sean also regularly teaches and demonstrates for SPAB and believes it’s vital to preserve traditional skills. Over the years, he has trained eight apprentices, three of whom remain valued members of his team.
