HERITAGE • TRADITION • QUALITY

Solid plastering, properly done

Old-school skills for heritage buildings — and clean, durable finishes for modern work.

We work across Adelaide on repairs, restoration and new plastering where the material and method matter. From breathable lime systems and traditional white set to sand-and-cement render, wet dash and detailed moulding work.

What we do

Specialist plastering services

Careful preparation, compatible materials and finishes that suit the building — not a one-mix-fits-all approach.

Lime Plastering

Non-hydraulic and hydraulic lime plaster systems, repairs and traditional breathable finishes.

Heritage Restoration

Traditional repairs to old walls, ceilings, cornices, mouldings and solid plaster details.

Lath & Plaster Ceilings

Repair, stabilisation and reinstatement of traditional lath-and-plaster ceilings.

Crack Repairs

Diagnose, open up and repair failed plaster using compatible systems rather than simply covering the crack.

Traditional Finishes

White set, wet dash, roughcast, sand-and-cement render and hand-finished solid plaster.

Cornice & Running Moulds

In-situ cornice repairs, running moulds and reinstatement of decorative or architectural profiles.

Heritage craftsmanship

Repair the building with materials it understands.

Older masonry often needs softer, more vapour-open plaster rather than hard modern cement-rich coatings. We match the repair approach to the existing substrate and finish wherever practical.
