beyond application
What began as disciplined application has evolved into a broader commitment: to strengthen technical understanding, protect material integrity, and contribute to a modern plaster renaissance rooted in craft rather than trend.
Our work now rests on four interconnected pillars:
Design
We collaborate with designers and builders to ensure finishes integrate properly within the overall vision — technically and aesthetically.
Apply
Execution is the foundation. Application keeps theory grounded in reality and ensures every system, product, and recommendation is tested in practice.
Educate
The Academy delivers structured training focused on systems, sequencing, and disciplined technique — strengthening execution across the industry.
Supply
Supply provides access to carefully selected mineral-based finishes while helping professionals specify correctly and avoid costly mistakes.
Together, these principles create a platform designed to support the plaster renaissance of the 21st century.
Material Integrity
We respect materials for what they are — mineral-based, breathable systems that perform when used correctly and fail when treated casually.
Application Discipline
Precision in sequencing, substrate preparation, and environmental awareness determines long-term performance.
Technical Clarity
Clear guidance prevents expensive mistakes. We believe professionals deserve informed direction, not vague marketing language.
Respect for Craft
Plaster is learned through repetition, correction, and refinement. Mastery develops over time

NOVACOLOR meets ADVANCED PLASTERING SUPPLY
More than Distribution
Materials without guidance create inconsistency. Guidance without experience creates theory. As a licensed distributor of Novacolor Italia, we provide both.
We supply mineral-based plaster systems formulated with lime and natural components — many low VOC, breathable, and supportive of healthier indoor environments. Every product we offer is backed by firsthand application knowledge and system-based understanding, ensuring materials are specified and used correctly from the start to protect your project, your margins, and your outcomes.
Our story
Built on craft. Committed to standards.
Advanced Plastering was formed long before it carried the name.
Malcolm and Trevor trained in the UK, where decorative finishes are treated as architectural decisions rather than surface decoration. Years of hands-on application and international work with mineral-based and Italian finishes shaped their expertise.
Their standards of excellence continue to guide Advanced Plastering today — informing how materials are selected, how systems are taught, and how the craft continues to evolve.
Advanced Plastering Academy
Advancing the Craft
The Academy teaches proper application techniques, substrate preparation, system sequencing, environmental variables, and long-term performance.
The goal is not to teach a technique in isolation. It is to strengthen the foundation beneath it.
