For main contractors, shopfitters and design teams
The finishing trade package, applied by our own team.
Color Revolution Ltd is a London decorative finishes subcontractor. Polished plaster, clay plaster, tadelakt, microcement, concrete effect, decorative resin and external render — priced against a written scope, integrated into your programme, and applied by our own operatives rather than sublet on.
Our director has worked in decorative finishes since 2008. Since 2020 we have invoiced over £1.8M of applied finishes, from single feature walls to repeat national retail rollouts.

Manufacturer systems
SpecificationSpecifiers name a system, not a trowel. We work across the decorative finish systems specified in the UK market rather than being tied to a single manufacturer.
Also appliedCameleo — UK distribution held by Cameleo UK Ltd · CAP Arreghini · Novacolor · Forcrete · Stucco Veneziano · Cemher · Microcement South · INNO Metal Surfaces · Mike Wye · Clay Lime · Ecorson · Tadelakt
Where your finishes schedule names a system we have not worked with, we apply it to that manufacturer’s specification and take their training or certification where the system requires it. Either way, a benchmark panel is signed off by the design team before full application begins.

How we deliver on a live site
SequenceSurvey and substrate assessment
Moisture, flatness, movement and previous coatings checked and reported in writing before we price the finish. Where a substrate is not ready to receive the finish, we say so before starting — not afterwards.
Sample and benchmark approval
Sample boards in the specified colour, then an on-site benchmark panel signed off by the design team before full application begins.
Programme integration
We work to your programme, including phased areas, out-of-hours working and works within trading stores.
Protection and site discipline
Full protection of adjacent finishes, daily clean-down, and project-specific RAMS issued before mobilisation.
Application
Applied by our own trained operatives to the manufacturer’s system specification, with wet-edge and shift planning appropriate to the area.
Snagging and handover
Joint inspection on completion, snag list closed out, and written care and maintenance guidance issued.
