Authentic limewash for homes and commercial spaces
Limewash is one of the oldest wall finishes in the world, and it is back because nothing else looks quite like it. Instead of sitting on top of the wall as a flat film, limewash soaks into the surface and cures into a soft, velvety matte finish with gentle variations in tone.
At LimeTex Global we prepare the wall properly, apply a mineral primer where needed and brush on multiple thin coats by hand. The result is a wall with depth and character that suits modern minimal interiors, Mediterranean-style villas and warm, earthy spaces alike.

What is limewash paint?
Limewash is a traditional mineral finish made from slaked lime, water and natural pigments. It soaks into porous surfaces and cures into a soft, matte, cloudy finish with gentle tonal movement, very different from the flat, even look of emulsion paint.
Can limewash be used on exterior walls in Karachi?
Yes. Limewash is used on both interior and exterior walls. On exterior walls and in humid coastal conditions we assess the substrate first and recommend the right primer and protective treatment so the finish ages well.
Can limewash be applied over existing emulsion paint?
Limewash bonds best to mineral surfaces such as plaster, cement render and brick. Over existing painted walls we apply a mineral bonding primer first so the limewash can grip and develop its natural texture.
Is limewash breathable and good for damp walls?
Limewash is vapour-open, so moisture inside the wall can escape instead of being trapped behind a plastic film. It also stays naturally alkaline, which helps resist mould. It does not fix the source of damp, so we identify and treat any seepage before applying it.
How much does limewash cost per square foot?
Limewash by LimeTex Global costs Rs 350 per square foot in Karachi. After a free site visit we confirm a clear written quotation, taking into account wall condition, repairs, primer requirements and access, with no hidden costs.
How long does a limewash wall take?
Most rooms and feature walls are completed in a few working days, including surface preparation, primer and two to three coats of limewash with drying time between coats. Larger homes and exteriors are scheduled after the site survey.
