Decorative Plaster Price Guide in Nice, French Riviera (2026)

Decorative plaster pricing in Nice depends heavily on the finish chosen, from classic Venetian stucco to tadelakt or béton ciré, as each requires different skill levels and curing times. Surface preparation, the number of coats, and polishing or waxing steps also significantly affect the final m² rate. Coastal humidity near the Côte d'Azur can require extra sealing, which adds to the budget.

FAQ

Most projects range from 45 to 150 euros per m² depending on the finish type, with tadelakt and béton ciré at the higher end due to the labor-intensive polishing process.

Yes, rénovation of an existing wall often costs slightly more per m² because it requires removing old coatings, repairing cracks, and ensuring a stable base before the new finish is applied.

Curing times vary from a few days to two weeks depending on humidity levels near the coast, and sealants may need extra drying time before the surface can be used normally.
