Almost any – we offer our clients a bespoke colour matching service. We can tint our tadelakt to match almost any colour choice, from natural white to the deepest black. Take a look at our colour chart for some inspiration. 

Traditional Moroccan tadelakt colours take inspiration from the stunning natural hues of Morocco: warm, burnished browns and yellow ochres of the desert, the lively vermilion of Marrakech, the cool and breezy cobalt blues of the Essaouira coast and the glowing saffron yellows of the souk.

In the UK, popular tadelakt colours are muted stone-like taupes, warm greys and beiges, as well as statement blacks and charcoal greys.

If our Moroccan plaster is desired in an area which will get wet regularly such as a shower cubicle or kitchen area, it needs to be applied to a waterproof substrate, which we can install or advise you on. We recommend the use of the Schluter-KERDI-BOARD (only for use in steam rooms) or Fermacell Powerpanel H2O in all other areas which we can safely apply our plasters onto.

Please ensure all substrates are built solidly since defects are difficult to resolve once the area is plastered. We always provide comprehensive fixing instructions in such circumstances. Likewise, we will happily advise on which substrate materials you or your builder should use to prepare your wet room appropriately for a waterproof tadelakt finish.

We use a penetrating sealer on the plaster in the first instance, and a hard-wearing water-based wax to protect the surface of the tadelakt.

Over months of regular use in a shower cubicle, the tadelakt surface may need cleaning, or you may notice more water being absorbed into the plaster surface. In these cases, simply reapply a coat or two of wax – we will equip you with a large tub of this product, along with thorough care and maintenance instructions on job completion. Harsh cleaning chemicals such as bleach should always be avoided.
