Frequently Asked

Answers for Garden District homeowners.

Do you work on Garden District historic homes?+

Yes — a large portion of my high-end work is Garden District renovations. We move carefully around original moldings, plaster, and trim, and we test every substrate before we apply microcement or tadelakt.

What does a Garden District tadelakt shower cost?+

Larger Garden District tadelakt installations typically run $8,000 to $18,000 — sometimes more for high ceilings, custom color, or full-room (floor + wall) installations.

Can you coordinate with our architect or designer?+

Absolutely. A lot of my Garden District work is designer-specified — I'm comfortable presenting samples, color matching, and meeting on-site to walk specs.
