Venetian Plastering for Homes in Tompsets Bank

As well as Tompsets Bank itself, our work reaches across West Sussex to areas we also cover such as Southwater and St Johns Common.

Most homeowners use Venetian plastering on a single feature wall, in a hallway or on a chimney breast, so the finish becomes the focal point the rest of the room is arranged around. Concentrating a specialist finish where it has the most impact is often a better use of budget than spreading it thinly, and we are happy to advise on where it will work hardest in your home.

Colour is part of the craft, not an afterthought. Venetian plaster and Marmorino can be tinted to a very wide range of tones, from soft neutrals to deep, saturated shades, and the way light moves across the burnished surface changes how that colour reads through the day. We talk through colour and texture options during the consultation so the finish sits right against the rest of your interior.

Every project starts with a consultation about the finish, colour and texture you are after, because polished plaster, Marmorino and Tadelakt each behave differently. Polished plaster gives the smoothest, most marble-like sheen, Marmorino has a softer textured lime-plaster look, and Tadelakt is the waterproof option for wet areas, so we help you choose the right one for the room before anything begins.

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.

Many of our Tompsets Bank clients come through recommendations across West Sussex, and we regularly work in surrounding areas such as Snow Hill and Southgate.
