With Channel 9 The Block Triple Threat about to air on television in 2015, thoughts turn to bathroom renovations and this year we predict that Tadelakt and marble like plaster finishes will be high on the minds of bathroom renovators around the country.

If you’re looking for great bathroom ideas that are affordable, minimalistic and will impress everyone who sets eyes upon it then Render it Oz’s Tadelakt bathroom finish is for you.

Tadelakt is a Moroccan decorative plaster finish used in bathrooms as it is waterproof and produces stunning results in bathroom renovations.

A great alternative to bathroom tiles, we’ve come up with the top five reasons you should add Tadelakt to the top of your bathroom ideas list:

1.             Its more affordable than you think

Having us come and do a unique Tadelakt bathroom finish for you is comparative in price to buying tiles and hiring a tiler to install them.

2.             It gets stronger over time so is extremely durable

The product we use is made up of lime and marble components which gets stronger over time and with proper care, will last as long as tiles. Render it Oz will teach you how to care for your new Tadelakt bathroom finish and leave you proper instructions and the products to keep it looking first class.

3.             It’s a design alternative to bathroom tiles

If you’re less than impressed with bathroom tiles at your local tile shop then you need to seriously consider Tadelakt as a design alternative. Applied by hand, you can guarantee no one else with have exactly the same finish as you – it’s completely unique.

4.             It has a luxurious feel 

Luxury is defined as: “a state of great comfort or elegance, especially when involving great expense.” While the first part of this statement is certainly true when thinking of a Tadelakt finish, the great expense part is false – see point one above.

5.             You’re not likely to see it everywhere

While Channel 9’s The Block has featured this finish in bathrooms thanks to contestant Matt Di Costa being a renderer and plasterer. The great thing about Tadelakt is that is it an elegant finish which hasn’t really gone mainstream meaning you are not going to see it everywhere you look.
