Walls we have finished
Our own work, photographed on site, not stock images.
Italian lime by hand, burnished by trowel, nothing sprayed. Architect-specified. Trusted on commercial and heritage work.
Decorative lime is the whole business. Nothing is skimmed, nothing is subcontracted, and the people on your wall do this and only this.
Imported from Italy by Zavorè. The tub says what is in it, and so can we.
Our work includes a Grade II* listed building, the highest grade of listing in the country.
Three boards, made for your wall, in your colour. Nothing is agreed until you have held them.
Itemised, agreed, and then left alone. It does not move after it is signed.
Our own work, photographed on site, not stock images.
Five steps, the same every time. You always know what happens next.
On the phone or on site. We check what the wall is made of and what the room has to put up with, and say which finish will cope.
Your finish, your colour, your sheen, on a panel you keep and look at for a few days. Nothing moves forward until you say so.
Preparation, materials, labour and protection, each on its own line. Nothing buried in a day rate. Signed, it stays signed.
Floors, joinery and furniture covered first. Dust kept down. Coats built and burnished to match the board. The site is cleaned every evening, not just the last one.
A walk round for snags, a note on looking after it, and a surface that gets harder and better with age. We answer the phone afterwards.
Marble dust in aged lime, burnished until it shines like stone. The finish most people mean by Venetian plaster.
Coarser marble in the mix, finished matt or with a low sheen. Forgiving on a long wall and better with age.
Thin, seamless and sealed. Over tiles, on floors, in wet rooms. The modern one.
Moroccan lime, polished with a stone and sealed with soap. One continuous surface, which is why it suits showers.
Brushed lime, chalky and cloudy, with almost no sheen. The softest of the six.
Real metal in a plaster binder. It tarnishes and patinates the way metal does. Bronze, brass, copper, iron.
We work across Kent: Regency and Victorian Tunbridge Wells, the large houses around Sevenoaks, the cathedral city of Canterbury, and the countryside between, where converted oast houses, weatherboarded cottages and farmhouses make up a good share of the interesting work. Much of it is listed or in a conservation area.
In the Regency and Victorian stock and the farm buildings we work in lime. In an oast conversion the walls curve, and lime plaster follows a curve where boards and tiles cannot. The larger modern houses around Sevenoaks take polished plaster and microcement the way any flat substrate does.
Everything about how we work — the samples, the fixed price, the six finishes — is on our main Venetian plastering page. This page is about Kent.
We cover the whole of Kent and the towns around it. If your address is not listed, ask anyway.
A photo and a rough size gets things moving. Next steps within one working day.
If you need any help, feel free to get in touch. We are happy to answer anything about finishes, timings or price.
