Venetian plaster is a decorative finish composed of lime and marble dust. It is hand-applied in multiple thin layers with a trowel. It is a versatile and timeless material that can be applied in various colours and textures to suit any design requirement. 

Venetian plaster can retain its charm and finish for decades, provided it is applied and maintained correctly. This makes it a long-lasting solution for both residential and commercial spaces.

Venetian plaster requires minimal maintenance to keep it looking new. A re-seal every two years or so can rejuvenate Venetian surfaces, subject to use, care and daily environmental conditions. Avoid vigorous scrubbing with abrasive cleaning items like wire wool or scouring pads, and refrain from using cleaners that contain harsh chemicals. it’s best to refer to the manufacturer’s aftercare guide or ask your installer how best to look after your surfaces. 

Yes, Venetian plaster is eco-friendly because of its non-toxic, natural mineral composition. In addition, this plaster does not contain harmful chemicals or give off VOCs (volatile organic compounds) like most paints do.

Factors such as location, details required, and chosen finish can influence the price of a Venetian plaster installation. Typically, Venetian plaster can cost anywhere between £130-£170+VAT per square meter.

Venetian plaster can be applied to a wide range of surfaces, including plasterboard, painted walls, wood, plaster, cement board, and more. This makes it ideal for both new builds and renovations.

Yes, Venetian plaster is highly customisable. It can be finished in a wide variety of colours and textures, from smooth and polished to more textured or rustic finishes, allowing you to transform your spaces tailored to your design visions. 

No, Venetian plaster is not suitable for outdoor application because the sealing process is not robust enough. Microcement is your best choice if you are looking for a similar finish on external surfaces

Venetian plaster is renowned for its fire-resistant properties, which make it a safe and reliable choice for various applications. This fire resistance is due to the composition of Venetian plaster, typically made from lime and marble dust. Lime has natural fire-resistant qualities, meaning it doesn’t easily ignite or propagate flames. This makes Venetian plaster suitable for areas where fire safety is paramount, such as fireplace surrounds, kitchens, or any other high-risk areas.

Yes, microcement is suitable for outdoor applications as well. It is weather-resistant and can be used on patios, terraces, and external walls, providing a seamless and contemporary finish to outdoor spaces.

Microcement is a resin-based coating used to create seamless finishes on floors, walls, and other surfaces. It is hand-applied with a trowel and is a versatile and durable material that can be applied in various colours and textures to suit different design aesthetics.

Microcement is relatively low-maintenance. Regular cleaning with a neutral pH cleaner and avoiding harsh chemicals will keep it looking great. Periodic resealing can further extend its longevity and rejuvenate the surface,

Factors such as location, details required, and chosen finish can influence the price of a microcement installation. Typically, microcement can cost anywhere between £130-£170+VAT per square meter.

Microcement can be applied to a wide range of surfaces, including screeds, cement boards, tiles, wood, plaster, and even existing floors or walls. It’s ideal for both new builds and renovations.

Yes, microcement is highly customisable. It can be finished in a wide variety of colours and textures, from smooth and polished to more textured or rustic finishes, allowing you to create a unique look tailored to your space. We offer a standard range of colours but can also closely match popular paint brands such as Farrow & Ball, Little Greene, Dulux, and RAL.

Microcement finishes we offer:

Coarse – Highly durable, large grain, rustic stone finish. Suitable for high-traffic walls, floors, and bathrooms. It can be heavily sanded so that it is smooth to the touch or lightly sanded to aid non-slip properties.

Medium – Understated, simplistic finish with subtle tones and minimal movement. It can be hand-floated to produce our signature cloudy finish. Suitable for medium-traffic walls, floors, and bathrooms. 

Trowel-X – Extremely durable, power-floated concrete effect finish with a Mohs hardness rating of 7, which is comparable to Quartz stone. It can be finished with a matt sealer or diamond polished to achieve a polished concrete look. FOR FLOORS ONLY.

Yes, microcement is suitable for outdoor applications as well. Thanks to its resin-based formula, it is 100% waterproof before sealers are applied. It is weather-resistant and can be used on patios, terraces, and external walls, providing a seamless and contemporary finish to outdoor spaces.

Yes, microcement is compatible with most wet and dry UFH systems. It is best to check with your installer beforehand to see if your chosen system is suitable and what substrate preparation they recommend. 

Due to the seamless nature of microcement, it can be difficult to patch in or repair large areas without being noticeable, even when using the same product and colour as the damaged area. If using a reputable brand of microcement, damage is unlikely to occur with general use.

Resin flooring is a seamless, durable plastic surface made from epoxy resin. While it’s a popular choice for commercial and industrial spaces due to its robustness, it’s also highly customizable and suitable for domestic environments.

Resin floors typically last 10-20 years, but the lifespan depends on several factors, such as maintenance, foot traffic and thickness. It is heat and water-resistant, making it a great choice for commercial and domestic applications.

Yes, resin floors are extremely low-maintenance, thanks to their seamless nature. They are durable, stain-resistant and wipe clean. Regular cleaning with a PH-neutral cleaner and avoiding harsh chemicals like ammonia or bleach will keep your floor looking brand new. 

Most resin floors aren’t inherently environmentally friendly in terms of composition because of the synthetic materials used to produce them unless they are bio-based. However, they sometimes do not require major demolition during installation. Its longevity and durability also reduce the need for replacements, making it a sustainable choice.

The cost of resin flooring can vary depending on several factors, including the type of finish, the size of the area, the level of preparation required, and the project’s location. Typically, resin flooring can range from £140-£170+VAT per square meter. 

Resin can be applied to a variety of well-prepared surfaces, such as concrete, tiles, wood, and existing floors. It’s an ideal choice for both new builds and renovations.

Yes, resin floors can be customised in both colour and texture to suit your preferences. You can choose from a wide range of colours, including vibrant hues, subtle pastels, and even metallic shades. Additionally, various textures can be achieved, such as smooth, satin, or matte finishes, as well as more intricate designs like flake floors and glittery effects.

Yes, resin floors can be installed outdoors. They are a popular choice for outdoor areas such as driveways, patios, and pathways due to their durability, weather resistance, and low maintenance requirements. Epoxy resin flooring, in particular, is a hard-wearing material that can withstand heavy footfall and vehicle traffic, making it ideal for outdoor use.

Yes, resin floors are compatible with underfloor heating systems. Resin flooring allows for efficient heat distribution, making it a great choice for use with underfloor heating. It’s naturally warm to the touch and doesn’t insulate heat like carpets, which can hinder heat transfer.

Resin floors can be repaired to a certain extent. The repair process typically involves identifying the damaged area, removing it, and then filling it with an appropriate repair material, such as high-strength epoxy resin, or cementitious crack filler. Once the repair material has cured, a final resin coat is applied to the surface to ensure a seamless finish.

The visibility of a repair on a resin floor depends on several factors: the extent and location of the damage, the skill of the person performing the repair, and the type of resin flooring used. Generally, a well-executed repair should blend seamlessly with the surrounding floor. However, in some cases, especially with older or highly patterned floors, a slight variation might be noticeable.
