Venetian Plastering in Worthing

Homeowners throughout Worthing in West Sussex choose Sussex Interiors, and we serve neighbouring areas including Whitemans Green and Wivelsfield Green too.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Alongside Worthing, homeowners in surrounding West Sussex areas such as West Town and Wiston rely on us for the same careful, tidy approach.
