Plastering for Oak Frame Homes in Herefordshire
Oak frame homes offer the perfect blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern sustainability.
At Colin James, we specialise in plastering oak frame homes, using breathable, flexible materials that work in harmony with the timber frame. Whether you’re finishing a barn-style self-build or a modern timber-framed home, we can help you achieve the look and performance your home deserves, right from the start.
There’s something truly rewarding about being part of an oak frame build. Each one is so unique, full of character, and built to stand the test of time.
At Colin James, we take real pride in the part we play, carefully plastering around the structure to give these homes the finish they deserve.
Our Plastering Services for Character Homes
Every oak frame build is different so we will always offer a completely bespoke solution for each project, but below are the services we typically offer for new build projects:
Appropriate Materials
We apply breathable, flexible plasters that move with the oak frame as it settles, ideal for both traditional and contemporary builds.
Detailing Around Beams
Clean, sharp plaster lines that frame the exposed oak beautifully and add definition to the space.
Fine Skim Finishes
Smooth plaster coats that are ready to paint or decorate, creating a natural look that still feels refined.
Ceilings & Feature Areas
Careful plastering around vaulted ceilings, gables, and trusses, ensuring every part of your home looks its best.
We’re very happy to coordinate with your architect or main contractor and we can work flexibly to suit your project timeline.

Recent Customer Review
"Colin and his team plastered our brand new oak framed home. It has a complicated roof structure, is very high, and is very detailed. Their work was exceptional. Their attention to detail and finish achieved was incredible.
Just as importantly the team was a pleasure to spend time with. We are self builders and on the project at the same time. When you spend 5 weeks with people it's a total bonus that they are so easy to work with. They were a total asset to our project and also helped us with recommendations for other top calibre subcontractors. Colin, we can't wait to show you our finished home that you have been such a big part of. Congrats on your work standards and professionalism."
