Blueboard & Veneer Plaster

The modern plaster system: blueboard hung tight, then finished with a rock-hard, glass-smooth veneer coat.

Overview

Craftsmanship you can see

Veneer plaster gives you the hard, smooth surface of traditional plaster with the speed of a modern system. We hang blueboard, a special gypsum board made to bond with plaster, then trowel on a thin veneer coat that cures harder than standard drywall mud.

The result is a seamless wall that resists dents and cracks, holds paint beautifully, and has none of the visible joints you get with taped drywall. It is a favorite for Boston-area remodels and additions where homeowners want that solid, high-end feel.

Blueboard & Veneer Plaster FAQs

Answers to the questions Boston-area homeowners ask us most.

Blueboard is made to bond with veneer plaster, while regular drywall is finished with tape and joint compound. Blueboard plus veneer gives a harder, more seamless wall.
Yes. The veneer coat cures very hard, so it resists dents and cracks better than a standard taped-and-sanded drywall finish.
Yes. Veneer is a thin coat over blueboard, so it goes on and cures faster than building up traditional plaster in multiple thick coats.
Absolutely, from a single room to a full house or new build across Greater Boston and southern NH.
