Cob Repairs

Cob Repairs

Cob repairs refer to the process of fixing or restoring buildings constructed using cob, a traditional, sustainable building material made from a mixture of clay, sand, straw, and water. Cob is known for its insulating properties, durability, and environmental friendliness, but like all natural materials, it can deteriorate over time due to weather, moisture, pests, or simply wear and tear. Repairing cob structures requires an understanding of the material’s unique characteristics and an approach that respects the traditional building methods.
