So after 3 months of collaboration with Francois Naudi of Mainland exteriors,a week ago today the largest Tadelakt project ever to be tendered in Vancouver was secured …phase 1 will be a whopping 25,000 + square feet of Stucco Italiano’s Tadelakt lime plaster .Watch this blog for video and photo updates of this exclusive residence receiving the wall finishing treatment of Tadelakt.
Now the real reason for this boring blog post…..We will be offering 3-5 positions of real hands on, on site Tadelakt training ,this will comprise finishing of actual wall surfaces, you will learn the process of installing Tadelakt lime plaster,you will learn tricks of the trade in running a decorative plastering crew. Add to this, we will teach you the concepts behind the estimating side of the venetian plaster business, you will complete a portfolio of 8 finished Tadelakt samples to show your clients.
You will then be well on your way with your new business venture, installing Stucco Italiano Tadelakt lime plaster.
This Tadelakt application course is open to all levels of plastering skill including the DIY’ER… for more information please use my contact page for email, or leave a comment below to be contacted with details.
I love seeing this trend growing, is anyone doing this work on Vancouver Island where I work?
Not that I know of,at least in any large scale J.C…although as a company, we do travel! Love Vancouver Island, and although I did not know it at the time, I have seen your work in person … at both Painters lodge and April Point, although we now stay on the Oyster river most years to enjoy the pink run, fly fishing and the fresh air!
As for interior plaster and natural wall coatings the trend is upward for sure ….Tadelakt being one of the more popular wall finishes,did you see the Tadelakt Lime exterior we did last year? Sorry for the slow reply ….was busy at Vancouver Buildex for most of the day yesterday.
