How Much Does Decorative Plaster Cost?
Decorative plaster typically costs between £40 and £80 per m², depending on the complexity of the design and the materials used. These materials can include gypsum, lime, and cement, each offering different textures and durability levels.
Custom ornate features, such as cornices or ceiling roses, may increase the price, while simpler designs remain more budget-friendly. The cost is also influenced by the scale of the project, the intricacy of mouldings, whether we incorporate Venetian plaster techniques or polished plasters, and any specialised finishes required, such as frescoes or scagliola.
Larger projects with extensive detailing may require longer timescales, affecting labour costs as well. We adhere to standards like BS 1369 for plastering, ensuring quality and consistency.

What Types of Decorative Plaster Are Available?
We offer a diverse range of decorative plaster types to suit varied aesthetic preferences and property styles. Our product range includes both modern and traditional options, allowing you to select pieces that complement your property's architecture.
Many clients choose our plasterwork to add character to Victorian and Georgian homes, capitalising on authentic design to enhance historic features.
Ceiling Roses: Intricate designs to enhance ceilings, available in different motifs, such as floral, geometric, and period-appropriate patterns. We use plaster reinforced with fibreglass for durability.
Cornices: Elegant mouldings that transition between walls and ceilings. These can incorporate several profiles, such as egg-and-dart or dentil, and can be crafted to match existing mouldings.
Corbels: Architectural features that add support and style. Our corbels come in various shapes and sizes, often used to complement arches and doorways.
Plaster Panels: Decorative wall panels for sophisticated interiors. Suitable for wainscoting or to create framed wall sections. They offer a polished finish and can be painted in any colour.
Each type can be customised with different styles and finishes to perfectly match your decor and can be installed in residential, commercial, or heritage properties. Contact us to explore the options that are right for your project.
How Long Does Decorative Plastering Take?
Most decorative plastering projects take between two to four weeks from design to completion. The timeline depends on the project's complexity and the intricacy of details involved.
For instance, a straightforward cornice installation in a residential property may be completed faster than a full-room ornate ceiling design. When working on extensive or highly detailed installations, such as historic restorations or custom domed ceilings, the process might extend to ensure precise moulding and adherence to heritage standards.
We use a range of materials, from traditional lime plaster to more modern gypsum options, which can also impact the timeline based on drying and setting times. For these intricate projects, techniques such as hand-crafting or using fibrous plaster elements are employed, requiring meticulous attention.
We aim to complete all projects efficiently without compromising on craftsmanship, maintaining clear communication with our clients throughout the process to keep them informed.
