Advantages of Solid plastering
High End Finish
Because the entire surface is trowelled it creates a smoother finish with no joins. Furthermore it can be used to create aesthetic features such as rounded corners.
Superior Soundproofing
Solid plaster reflects sounds and prevents it from leaving the room unlike plasterboard which absorbs sound and allows it to transmit to other rooms.
Fire Resistant
whilst modern-day fire-resistant plasterboard products can be used solid plaster is intrinsically resistant to fire.
Superior Durability
Unlike plasterboard walls which are easy to break holes into solid plaster is much more durable.
Solid plastering vs plasterboard: What’s the difference?
Solid plastering is a traditional technique which involves an expertly skilled tradesperson applying plaster to a wall using a trowel. Solid plaster can be used to cover a large variety of materials and was the common method of lining internal walls of building of yesteryear and for higher end modern day projects.
Plasterboard is a modern interior lining material which comes preassembled in panels which are fixed to a stud wall. The wall is then finished with a topping compound which is used to fill the gaps between individual sheets of plasterboard to give the appearance of one continuous surface.

Venetian plastering Geelong
Venetian plaster or polished plaster has experienced a resurgence amongst Geelong home renovators in recent years. Venetian plaster gives walls a amazing finish, whilst also being reistant to water and more affordable than retiling. Venetian plaster is a high quality, lime-based finish for walls. It can be polished to become a glossy surface, or it can be applied to create texture and depth to walls, creating a feature statement in any dull space.
Types of Venetian plaster: Tavertino, Stucco Veneziano, Marmorino
