St Ives Plastering
Project

Prestigious new build featuring extensive plastering, suspended ceilings, and custom bulkheads.

This prestigious new build at St Ives on Sydney’s Upper North Shore involved plastering across a 300 sqm ceiling space and 700 sqm of wall area. The project featured suspended ceilings throughout, custom designed bulkheads, and integrated lighting systems, all executed with meticulous attention to detail.

Our expert team at Seamless Interiors was entrusted with delivering a flawless finish, focusing on precision, quality, and the seamless integration of architectural features.

Scope of Work

For this high end residential project, we undertook the following key tasks:

Assessment and Planning

The team began by evaluating the site and assessing the architectural requirements, including the integration of suspended ceilings, recessed lighting, and concealed spaces for air conditioning and plumbing. We ensured every detail was planned for optimal execution.

Level 5 Plastering Finish

The entire project was finished to Level 5 standards – the highest quality in the industry. All walls and ceilings were meticulously prepared to ensure no imperfections were visible under both natural and artificial lighting. To achieve this, we applied 13mm plasterboard to cover the dincel concrete walls and fibre cement sheeting in bathroom areas in preparation for tiling.

Suspended Ceiling Installation & Bulkheads

A key feature of this project was the creation of suspended ceilings and bulkheads. These were strategically installed in bathrooms and utility rooms to conceal air conditioning units, extractor fans, and plumbing. Custom blind pelmets were installed on all windows, with a squared set perimeter to provide a seamless finish. The ceilings were finished with a P-50 (10mm) shadowline at the ceiling to wall junction, enhancing the modern aesthetic and creating a crisp, clean line throughout the space.

Integrated Lighting

To achieve the client's vision of clean, modern aesthetics, we integrated recessed downlights into the ceilings, ensuring a seamless look with no visible light fittings. Our team was responsible for building out hidden cavities to accommodate the lighting systems.

Final Inspection & Clean Up

After completing the plastering and lighting installations, we conducted a thorough final inspection to ensure all aspects of the work were in perfect condition. We cleared all debris and ensured that the site was left spotless, with all electrical components and fixtures properly secured.

Challenges and Solutions

The St Ives project presented a challenge:

Suspended Ceiling Integration

Suspended ceilings require precise measurements and meticulous attention to detail, especially when integrated with other systems like lighting and air conditioning.

Our team used advanced tools and techniques to ensure perfect alignment, making the integration of all systems seamless and ensuring the aesthetics were not compromised.

Commitment to Sustainability

The team at Seamless Interiors are dedicated to incorporating sustainable practices in every project. During the St Ives plastering project, we made careful material selections that met sustainability standards and minimised our environmental impact. Our team ensures that materials are responsibly sourced, and waste is managed efficiently to reduce the carbon footprint of each job.

Outcome

The St Ives Plastering Project was completed on time, with all surfaces finished to a Level 5 plastering standard. The final result was a seamless and modern living space, ready for the client’s interior design vision to come to life. The site was left in pristine condition, with all plastering, lighting, and bulkhead features fully integrated and operational.

“If you want a professional product then look no further than Seamless Interiors Linings. Seamless accurately described the job he was quoting on, was punctual at all times and very communicative. I had renovated the apartment and had new carpets and they took the time to ensure that the carpet was covered at all times and he took away all rubbish and cleaned up beautifully. The gyprock wall they put up is excellent and many neighbours have commented on the professional finish. I would highly recommend Seamless Interiors Linings.”
