What changes the price of Venetian plaster in Kingsclere?
The size of the wall, the number of coats and a skim on a wavy wall change the Kingsclere price of Venetian plaster. That price covers checking the wall, laying the coloured coats, bringing the shine up with a trowel and sealing the face. Extra coats are there for a deeper shine. The skim is priced on its own, before the colour. We arrive when arranged. The price named beforehand is the price of the work.
Included
- Checking the base is flat and sound
- Thin layers of coloured plaster
- Burnishing each layer with the trowel
- A final polish to bring up the sheen
- A deeper shine on a Kingsclere wall means more coloured coats, and those coats are part of the price.
- A wavy Kingsclere wall is skimmed flat before colour starts, and the skim is a separate price.
- Decorating the other walls in the Kingsclere room is not included in this price.
- A shade made for one Kingsclere wall alone is not included. The arranged time and the named price both stay.

What happens on the day
Venetian plastering in Kingsclere is done in order on the day. The wall is flattened first. Coloured coats follow. The trowel then works the face until it is bright. The seal is last.
- Does a Kingsclere wall have to be flat for Venetian plaster?Yes, colour waits until the Kingsclere wall is flat and firm. Thin coats copy a hollow, and that hollow then shows in the shine. We rub down the raised parts. We brush a primer on next. Primer means the coat that gives the plaster a grip. A wavy wall is flattened with a skim before the colour. A skim means a thin closing coat of finishing plaster. The skim is priced before any coloured coat.
- How is the colour built up on a Kingsclere wall?Your chosen shade goes into the Kingsclere plaster before the first coat. We lay that plaster very thin. Fresh strokes cross the strokes already on the wall. A coat has to stiffen. The next coat starts only after that. Extra coats go on when you want the shine to sit deeper. Extra coats keep the trowel moving for longer.
- How does a Kingsclere wall get a polished shine?The polished shine on a Kingsclere wall comes from the last pass of the trowel. That pass is called burnishing. Burnishing is the trowel pressed and moved until the coat shuts and turns bright. Crossed strokes leave the colour shifting along the wall. The shift looks cloudy, in the way polished stone looks cloudy. Painting the other walls is not part of this finish.
- When can Venetian plaster on a Kingsclere wall be wiped?Venetian plaster on a Kingsclere wall can be wiped after the seal. The seal goes on once the face is bright. A soft cloth with a little water on it does the wipe. Everyday use in the room is fine after that seal. We take the tools away with us. The room is tidy at the end.
