Consultancy

If you are planning a natural building, using lime or clay plasters, having restoration woes, wanting to build an earthbag house, or go off-grid, you will save yourself an awful lot of time, money, energy and tears by getting some expert advice first.

When it comes to natural building, proper advice is hard to come by. You won't get the right answers from mainstream builders and architects who are not specialists in natural building. I can't emphasise this enough. Natural building for the most part does not work anything like mainstream building. They are two different fields of knowledge and experience.

I've been building with mud and lime since 2011 in various countries, and under challenging circumstances. I specialise in cob and clay plasters, lime applications, earthbag building, renovating ancient structures, and off-grid living. I can advise on cob structures, earthen floors, and most natural building projects. If you're planning a natural home, renovating an old building, rendering or redecorating naturally and would like some advice, feel free to book a consultation with me.

The Consultation Fee and Content 
My fee is £95 GBP for 50 minutes + a detailed written report.

How does it work? We organise a video call at a mutually agreed time. Feel free to show me around you property/issue/wall and ask as many questions as you like. After the call I write a report and send it to you so that you have a copy of all my suggestions and resources.

To book a consultation contact me at: [email protected]. Outline what you'd like to learn more about, and write "Consultation" in the heading so that I home in on it first. Alternatively fill in the form below.

    Consultation Request

    Just write a few words such as: Clay Plaster Questions, or Earthbag House Design.
