My facade needs rescuing
Listed building, or a sgraffito disappearing behind moss and cracks? We restore it layer by layer, with lime and pigment like the originals. And yes: there are grants for this.
Contractor · Sgraffito · Kempen, Flanders
The top layer comes off.
The pattern stays.
Kras & Klei is a building contractor with one specialism: sgraffito. Coloured lime plaster, layered on your masonry, with the motif scratched through the top coat. No sticker, no paint — a centuries-old technique with a signature.
I want something nobody else has
One wall, one motif, for new builds or renovations. Together we choose a drawing that suits your home, family or business — and that your neighbour has never seen.
