Venetian Plaster
in Woodland Hills
Hand-applied marble-like wall finishes for Woodland Hills homes and commercial spaces. Matte, satin, and polished finishes in any color.
Woodland Hills is one of the Valley’s largest and most active residential markets. The neighborhood’s mix of ranch homes, contemporary renovations, and luxury properties throughout the 91364 and 91367 zip codes creates consistent demand for premium wall finishes. Venetian plaster is an increasingly popular choice for Woodland Hills homeowners looking to add a finish that genuinely distinguishes their renovation.
Most popular Woodland Hills finishes: Warm neutrals and earthy tones are most popular in Woodland Hills — Sand, Linen, and Ivory finishes that suit the ranch and contemporary architecture throughout the neighborhood.
In a market as large as Woodland Hills, differentiation matters. Venetian plaster’s rarity relative to standard paint — and its immediate visual impact — creates a strong design statement in homes where most walls are still flat painted.
What Sets Venetian Plaster Apart
- Depth and luminosity. Venetian plaster is built up in multiple thin layers, each burnished before the next is applied. The result is a depth that paint — however carefully applied — cannot replicate. It catches light differently throughout the day.
- Completely permanent. Unlike paint or wallpaper, Venetian plaster is a structural coating. It bonds chemically to the wall substrate and does not peel, crack, or fade. Properly maintained it lasts 20+ years.
- Three finish levels. Matte (raw, gallery quality), satin (warm and luminous), and high-polished (maximum reflectivity and depth). All achievable with the same material — the finish level is controlled by the burnishing technique.
- Applied in occupied homes. No demolition, minimal smell, no significant dust. We work in occupied Woodland Hills homes and leave each day’s work area clean before we leave.

The Application Process
Venetian plaster is a multi-layer process. Each coat is applied by hand, allowed to partially cure, then burnished before the next layer. The number of coats and the burnishing technique determines the final finish level.
We assess the existing walls, fill any cracks or imperfections, sand where necessary, and apply a bonding primer formulated for Venetian plaster. The quality of the preparation determines the quality of the final result. We don’t rush this stage.
The first layer of Venetian plaster is hand-applied using a steel trowel. Color is custom mixed to specification — we bring samples to the consultation and can produce test patches on your wall in your specific lighting before committing to the full application.
Subsequent coats are applied and burnished while partially cured. The burnishing process — compressing the plaster surface with a steel trowel — develops the characteristic luminosity and depth of Venetian plaster. For high-polish finishes, additional coats and burnishing cycles are used.
The completed surface is sealed with a finishing wax or penetrating sealer appropriate to the finish level and the room’s use. Matte finishes receive a flat wax. Polished finishes receive a clear hard wax that enhances the luminosity. The wall is complete and fully usable immediately after the sealer dries.
