Initial conversation
We review location, design intent, application, drawings or reference images, schedule, and the larger project team. If the material or timing is a poor fit, we say so early.
Process · 01—06
Clarity before craft
A beautiful surface is a coordinated assembly.
The finish is often the thinnest layer in the room. Its success depends on everything beneath it and everyone who touches the work before and after.
Technical review
We examine substrate, geometry, transitions, wet-area strategy, movement, environmental conditions, access, protection, and adjacent trade responsibilities. Manufacturer documentation governs the selected system.
Sample direction
Samples establish color family, texture, sheen, and acceptable movement. Because mineral finishes are hand-applied, the approved sample is a direction and control—not a promise of mechanical repetition.
Scope + sequencing
The proposal identifies inclusions, exclusions, assumptions, substrate readiness, mockups when required, schedule dependencies, and protection responsibilities.
Preparation + application
Work proceeds through documented preparation, primers or membranes where specified, finish layers, curing, sealing when applicable, and deliberate protection between trades.
Handover
The completed work is reviewed with maintenance and care guidance appropriate to the system. Touch-up expectations and any project-specific limitations are recorded.
