How It Works
At Amantis Artisan Plaster, the process begins with curiosity. Through conversation, samples, and collaboration, we help you discover a finish that feels natural for your home and unique to your vision.
Every room has its own personality. Before recommending a finish, we take the time to understand your home, your design goals, and the feeling you want the space to create.
Whether you’re looking for warmth and texture in a living area, a refined statement wall, or a finish that complements your architecture, the right plaster begins with understanding the space it will become part of.
Many homeowners begin by considering traditional drywall and paint. It’s often not until they see handcrafted plaster in person that they realize their walls can become something more.
During your consultation, Miles brings plaster samples so you can experience the depth, movement, and natural variation that make lime plaster unique. Together, we explore different textures, colors, and finishes to find the approach that best fits your space.
Unlike manufactured finishes that look the same from one home to the next, artisan plaster is shaped by the hands that create it and the environment where it is applied.
Every Amantis finish is customized through careful consideration of color, texture, lighting, and architectural style. The result is a surface with its own character—one that belongs specifically to your home.
Exceptional plaster requires more than artistic ability. It requires an understanding of materials, preparation, and construction.
With more than 20 years of experience in remodeling, carpentry, drywall, and new construction, combined with training in traditional lime plaster techniques, Miles brings both craftsmanship and technical precision to every project.
Each layer is carefully applied by hand, creating a finish with depth and movement that cannot be replicated by standard wall treatments.
Lime plaster has been valued for centuries because of its beauty, durability, and ability to age gracefully.
The finished result is more than a decorative surface. It becomes part of the architecture of your home—a detail that adds warmth, character, and a sense of permanence for years to come.
Testimonials
The most meaningful part of our work isn't just the finished plaster—it's hearing how it transforms the way people feel about their homes. Here's what clients have shared about their experience working with Amantis Artisan Plaster.
We sought a more sophisticated look than just the ol' "orange peel" spray texture for our new walls. We were referred to Miles Turner and he brought us a dozen texture samples to choose from. He was also able to mix our favorite colors in with his plaster. Application took a couple of weeks and the results were stunning. The walls are beautiful and the texture is very satisfying! Miles is also well-versed in construction and was able to give us excellent building advice. Personable, polite and professional; highly recommended.
Amantis is my go-to for new projects and home repairs. Knowledgeable and experienced, we've hired Miles for projects ranging from repairing our marble kitchen counter, re-doing our laundry room, building a beautiful, customized wood fence and gate, among other projects. Miles gets the job done perfectly and efficiently every time, and on top of that, he is a great guy!
Miles is really good at all drywall finishing! He's a pleasure to work with and he's fairly priced. I recommend to all of my clients whenever they need drywall repair or work of any sort.
If I have a project to get done, Miles is the first one I call. Miles has led three multi-room projects at my home and has earned being my first choice when I need work done. After the initial sales pitch and signing of contracts, Miles was in charge of implementing those plans and getting it done right. He is one of very few that I trust to demolish and rebuild my home. Miles gets five stars from my wife and cats too!
Miles is extremely knowledgeable, trustworthy and efficient. He has helped with many small and large house projects, including a beautiful pergola patio covering, but especially the decorative artisan plaster wall in my basement guest room. It lights up the space beautifully. I keep Miles on speed dial!
