Nanomaterials have been increasingly used in the construction industry in the last decades. Nanomaterials have been tested in specific applications focusing on the restoration and conservation of heritage buildings, mainly their surfaces. Nanofibre materials represent a separate area within this field of research and their applications in the construction and conservation practice are still very limited. The article summarizes the possibilities of strengthening plasters decorated with wall paintings with nanomaterials.
