Art Deco Plastering uses the following names for exterior plastering finishes:

Light texture finish
A contemporary texture developed and applied in the last two decades. It is commonly used in homes or commercial building due to its affordability. It consists of small particles of mud and high water content. It is applied with a soft and constant motion following a pattern with or without direction as our clients request.

Medium texture finish
A similar application to the light texture finish with the exception that the mud must be thicker or with lower water content.

Heavy texture finish
A variation of the medium texture finish. The mud used for this application has to be even thicker or mixed with lower water content. It is frequently applied on homes with a Mediterranean design.

Old World finish
A simulation of textures used to plaster the first homes built in Palm Beach, Broward and Miami Dade counties. As many layers of paint were applied on the walls, it smoothed out the original texture of these old homes and throughout the years it decreased the ridges creating a smooth, bumpy kind of texture. This texture is known as Old World Finish, Palm Beach Bumpy Finish or Sponged Float Finish.

Float smooth finish
This finish is achieved while the mud is still wet and until a smooth surface is obtained. This finish is the most elegant and refined finish due to its smoothness and perfection.

Scored lines over smooth finish
A technique used to enhance inner ornaments as well as partial exterior elevations, providing elegance and sophisticated decor. This technique is accomplished by cutting the stucco on the wall while it is still wet with a scoring tool, creating gaps and divisions in horizontal, vertical or diagonal areas.

Simulated Stucco siding (Key West Style)
Derived from a smooth finish, however it overlaps stucco bands simulating the sidings in Key West Style Homes. Simulated stucco plastering has the advantage of being more resistant than regular sidings, holding up to hurricanes without chipping or breaking at a more affordable price.

Simulated brick
A perfect unique choice for commercial or residential projects with time and budget restrains. We help our clients save as much as possible and we reflect it in the cost of labor, materials and completion time. Simulated brick is great for new or renovation projects since it does not require any additional preparation except that the surface must be clean and debris free. The variety of choices adds great advantage since it is not delivered from a factory; instead we customize it to meet our clients needs. We can minimize or enlarge the brick size, as well as the score line that divides the brick, or we can project it to surround windows, arches, doors or any other specific area on the building's elevation. The variety of colors and the way they are integrated in the mud gives our brick a unique style, making your home a magnificent unique masterpiece with your own design.
