Plastering is becoming a dying art and it breaks my heart.
That's why it's my mission
to give back and
try to empower as many people from every Walk of Life
to feel confident and competent to choose to do plaster.

Even it's for their own small projects and even if they have no intention of becoming a long-term plaster artisan.

I offer old house workshops
with you
in your own house
on your own projects,
whether it's woodworking,
window repair or in this case
plastering

The materials are getting harder to find more expensive,
And when you do find them occasionally the quality and freshness isn't what it used to be.

But it truly is a very attainable skill.
YOU CAN DO IT
THIS ISN'T ROCKET SURGERY AND I'M NOT THE BRIGHTEST BULB IN THE BOX
SO IF I CAN DO IT
YOU CAN DO IT

It boggles my mind that More professionals still choose inferior drywall over the superior plastering materials and techniques.
We need to keep the markets and the skills alive and strengthen them.

Plaster can often be done much faster with much less ambient dust that gets into the rest of the house and
it can make up for irregularities in framing and settling within a house
that drywallers simply can't hide.

Plaster is easier than you think
and the learning curve is really so much faster with someone there to notice the conditions at hand and the chemistry and working environment.

So if you want to learn plaster,
give me a call.
It doesn't matter where you are in your skill level
or in your geography.
If we can find out a way to work together,
I'm happy to empower you
under my one condition
that you please try to pass it on and share what you know and help other people learn too.
Even if it's just a quick social media post
