Smooth, sprayed or with character.

Four finishes, each with its own trowel or spray gun and its own price per m². For each finish: what's included, how many days it takes and how the wall looks.

Finish 01

Smooth plastering

Walls and ceilings flat and smooth, wallpaper-ready or paint-ready.

We apply gypsum plaster by hand and trowel it smooth in two rounds. Corners get a bead, so they stay crisp. Wallpaper-ready is flat enough for wallpaper or glass-fibre lining. Paint-ready goes a step further: the wall is so smooth you can paint it straight away.

  • Wallpaper-ready (group 2) or paint-ready (group 3)
  • Corner beads and reveals included
  • Walls and ceilings in one go

Spray finish

Ceilings and walls sprayed in a fine or coarse texture. Often done in a day.

Spray plaster is the quick, affordable choice for ceilings. First we mask everything: floor, frames, walls and lights. Then we spray in a single pass. Choose a fine texture for a calm ceiling or a coarser one if you want to hide unevenness.

  • Fine or coarse texture
  • Lime white or a light tint
  • Masking and clearing up included
Substrate
Concrete ceiling, plasterboard, old spray finish
Work
Ceiling up to 40 m² in one day

Decorative plaster

Concrete look, lime plaster and tadelakt. A wall you want to touch.

We apply decorative plaster by hand in thin layers, with a steel trowel or a stone. Concrete look gives calm clouds of grey. Lime plaster gets a soft, stone-like sheen. Tadelakt is waterproof and works in a shower without tiles. First we make a sample in your colour.

  • Sample in your colour beforehand
  • Concrete look, marmorino or tadelakt
  • Also for showers and kitchen walls
Substrate
Smooth plastered wall or plasterboard
Work
Two to four layers, drying in between

Renovation

Cracks, hollow spots and old layers: we make the wall sound again.

Older houses often have more on the walls than you'd think: wallpaper, paint, lime, gypsum. We tap the wall, remove what's loose and reinforce cracks with mesh. Then we build it back up to a straight, smooth wall. If in doubt, we do a test patch first.

  • Cracks reinforced with mesh
  • Hollow and loose layers removed
  • Crooked walls made straight again
Substrate
Old lime, gypsum on reed, clay, layers of paint
Work
First strip and reinforce, then build up
Drying time
2 weeks, depending on thickness
Price
from €12 per m² on top of the plastering

Wallpaper-ready or paint-ready?

This is what most customers call about. It all comes down to how smooth we make the final coat, and so what you can do with it later.

Wallpaper-ready group 2

Flat and smooth. In raking light you can still see faint trowel marks. Fine under wallpaper, glass-fibre lining or a matt emulsion in a room without harsh side light.

€18 per m²

Paint-ready group 3

One extra round of smoothing. Even with a lamp alongside, the wall stays calm. Choose this for big windows, strong light and paint with no prep work.

€22 per m²
