Plastering Projects: Photos of Finished Work

These are jobs I’ve actually done, photographed while the work was happening and after it was finished. No styled photos from a photographer, this is what happens inside people’s homes, from a bare wall to a finish that’s ready to use. Under each photo you can see which job it was and which stage you’re looking at.

During and after the job

On some of these photos the work is still underway. A facade sits behind scaffolding with the window frames taped off against splashes. A bathroom wall is built up from gypsum blocks with the first layer of cement render on top, and a ceiling stands open with insulation still visible between the joists, before the boards go over it. On other photos the job is already finished: a wall standing smooth in raking light, a ceiling running flat right into the corner, or a facade finished white and even all the way round. So you see not just the end result, but the step before it too.

From wall to facade

The jobs above cover different parts of the trade. Indoors, that’s wall plastering, with walls and an arched section made smooth and level, and ceiling plastering in a hallway under a skylight. Outdoors, it’s a whole facade through exterior rendering, from the first coat to a flat, white finish. There’s also a job with ceiling lowering, where the insulation is still visible before the finish goes over it.
