Moroccan Clay Finishes Done Right the First Time
Moroccan clay finishes bring a depth and softness to a wall that flat paint simply cannot reproduce. Applied by hand in thin layers and burnished to a subtle sheen, tadelakt and clay plaster create a seamless surface that shifts with the light through the day.
These finishes suit southwest Colorado beautifully. The warm, mineral tones sit naturally against timber, stone, and adobe detailing, and the material is breathable — it manages moisture rather than trapping it behind a film.
Application is a craft process. Substrates are levelled and primed, plaster is troweled in successive coats, then compressed and burnished by hand. Tadelakt intended for wet areas such as showers and vanities is finished with traditional soap sealing for water resistance.
Feature walls, fireplaces, alcoves, powder rooms, and full-room installations are all available, and we prepare samples in your own light before committing to a color and texture.

Moroccan Clay Finishes FAQs
Can Moroccan clay plaster be used in a shower?
Yes. Tadelakt is traditionally used in wet rooms and is burnished and soap-sealed to resist water, giving you a seamless shower surface with no grout lines.
How is a clay finish different from textured paint?
Clay plaster is a mineral material applied in real thickness and burnished by hand, so the depth and color variation are in the surface itself rather than printed on it.
How do I maintain a clay finish?
Day to day it needs only a soft dry cloth. Wet-area tadelakt benefits from an occasional reapplication of natural soap to keep its water resistance.
