Lately, decorative plaster has been making a comeback because of all the great benefits it offers. We've seen it used in new homes, commercial spaces, and all kinds of renovation projects.

​

Here are some of the top reasons we think plaster is a great choice.

​

DURABILITY: Designed to last for centuries; many historic homes still have well-preserved original plaster.

​

ARTISTRY: It can be molded into decorative elements like moldings, archways, ceiling panels—ideal for both historical and contemporary styles.

​

ACUSTICS: Denser and more solid than drywall, plaster improves sound absorption—enhancing audio quality in studios, theaters, and restaurants.

​

VERSATILITY: Can match existing finishes (like drywall) seamlessly and is adaptable to any surface—from walls to architectural features.

​

CLEANLINESS: Applied wet over blueboard, requiring no cutting, sanding, or generating dust—unlike drywall.
