Feature Wall Venetian Plastering in Gossops Green

Homeowners throughout Gossops Green in West Sussex choose Sussex Interiors, and we serve neighbouring areas including Forest Row and Founthill too.

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.

The finish itself is built up by hand in multiple thin coats rather than one thick application. Each layer is applied and then burnished before the next, which is what develops the depth, movement and light-reflective sheen that defines Venetian plaster. It is slow, deliberate work, and rushing it is exactly what flattens the final result, so we let the process take the time it needs.

A large part of getting the finish right is making sure it sits well with everything around it, from flooring and joinery to the light the room receives. We look at the whole space during the consultation, not just the wall in question, so the colour and sheen you choose complement the room rather than fighting it.

A typical feature wall takes several days to complete, because each of the thin layers needs time to partially dry before it can be burnished and the next coat added. We talk you through the likely sequence and timeline at the quote stage, so you know what to expect and can plan around the work before we start in your home.

We keep our coverage tight around Gossops Green and the rest of West Sussex so the team stays genuinely local, reaching areas we also serve like Franklands Village and Fishers Gate.
