Polished Plaster & Venetian Plastering in Brook Street

Brook Street sits within our West Sussex coverage, alongside other areas we serve including Barcombe and Bewbush.

For bathrooms and wet rooms, Tadelakt is applied and then sealed so it is genuinely water-resistant, unlike standard Venetian plaster which is decorative rather than waterproof. This is what allows a seamless, tactile plaster finish to be used where you would normally expect tiles, giving a wet area a soft, continuous surface with no grout lines to maintain.

A flawless plaster finish depends entirely on the surface beneath it, so careful substrate preparation comes first. We make sure the wall is sound, smooth and properly prepared to receive the plaster, because any unevenness underneath telegraphs straight through the thin, hand-applied layers. This groundwork is a large part of why a specialist finish looks the way it does.

Genuine polished plaster is a specialist finish, and it is not something most general decorating firms take on in-house. Because we have invested in the materials and the technique, the work stays with one team from preparation through to the final burnish rather than being subcontracted out, which is a large part of why the result comes out consistent.

Marmorino sits between the high sheen of classic polished plaster and a plainer matt paint, giving a softer, textured lime-plaster look that still carries real depth. It suits homeowners who want the character of a hand-applied finish without the strongest mirror-like polish, and like the other finishes it can be tinted across a wide range of tones to sit against your existing scheme.

Alongside Brook Street, homeowners in surrounding West Sussex areas such as Baldwins Hill and Bevendean rely on us for the same careful, tidy approach.
