LTP has helped the
George & Dragon restore the paving of its popular south-facing beer garden
in Dartmouth.
The Kandla Black
natural limestone paving – after just three years exposure to the Devon
sunlight and weathering – had faded from its original ’black’ / dark grey to an
innocuous light grey.
LTP’s ECOPROTEC
Blackstone sealer and restorer was chosen to restore the stone’s dark finish
and aesthetic contrast between the paving and white walls with grey/green
structural steelwork and roof tiles.
The George &
Dragon has been a public house for over 200 years and its large paved beer
garden is next to and bordered by a historic natural stone wall, once the end
of the former shipyards on the foreshore.
The venue’s
tardis-like interior now blends old and new, with many original features, as
does the paved beer garden that is popular for alfresco dining and live music
in the summer.
ECOPROTEC
Blackstone is a safe, water-dispersed, impregnating, colour enhancing paving
sealer that is applied in 2-3 coats - before being ‘cut-back’ with a dilute
solution of LTP Powerstripper to give a uniform finish.
The treated
surface can be walked on just four hours after the final application and can be
returned to normal use within one or two days.
