Articulate Finish LLC

John is that rare combination of creative, passionate, detail-oriented, and practical. His work is beyond reproach, and he is exceptionally thorough, fair, and straight-forward about all the pros and cons of various materials and processes. He's also very fun and easy-going, i have a small open-plan house and he has spent over two weeks here on two American clay projects. I was pretty apprehensive about the invasion but we had a really good groove here and my pets liked him and his helper Travis as much as i did. The pale sage Loma in the sunroom and white Forte with mica in the main room both turned out absolutely stellar (and they smell great too.) I had originally planned to take a class with John but am sooooo glad i decided to bite the bullet and let him work his magic rather than me fuddling through with a lovely but high-end, quirky and temperamental product that i have no experience with at all. I will stick with doing the painting in the less important rooms.

John did an amazing job on our Conifer Home. He and his assistant Travis spent three weeks on our project and were so professional that we never worried having them in our home - guarded by our two Golden Retrievers who kept trying to help! They did a fantastic job keeping everything masked off and did a great job cleaning up after themselves. The work itself was incredible, we couldn't be happier with the results. Everyone who sees our home is so complementary - we are thrilled and soon will have them back to finish up the remaining two rooms and two bathrooms that we have not finished renovating. We HIGHLY recommend John and Articulate Finish - you will be so pleased with the work done by these artisans!

John applied American Clay on two separate walls in my home. One of which was a sage green Venetian plaster finish and the other a red sandstone finish. The attention to detail and end-result on both were outstanding. And nearly every visitor to my home has commented on the red sandstone wall, usually stating that it looks and feels just like a sandstone cliff in Utah. Highly recommended.

We hired John to complete 2 projects for us, a skip trowel finish in our master bath and American clay in our kitchen. Both projects turned out great and we are thrilled with the results! John is a true artist and very attentive to detail. His experience is clearly shown through his workmanship. John is also a pleasure to work with. He was always on time, hardworking, respectful of being in our home and of other contractors, and his prices are very reasonable. If you are considering an alternative to traditional paint, Articulate Finish is a great place to look!

John is an amazing artist! His work with American Clay is fantastic. He is excellent with skip-trowel finishes as well. He has an excellent attitude with any challenge and pays special attention to detail. Great finisher and great guy!

John is a true artist and takes pride in the details of his work. My client and I are thrilled with the results, the room is now the cozy cottage get-a-way we had envisioned in our plans. The crew worked very hard to get the job completed on schedule and within the budget that was discussed. I would hire Articulate Finish for another job in a heartbeat!

After interviewing and visiting work examples of three professional plaster companies, I had the great fortune of meeting John Wood of Articulate Finish. During our initial interview, John had graciously brought 'plaster on plywood' examples of his work. I was 'blown-away' by his talent, reasonable price, and, hired Articulate Finish to plaster our living room walls and ceiling.The transformation John and his crew created was so beautiful that I hired Articulate Finish to plaster, using natural American Clay, ALL remaining walls and ceilings of our 103 year old bungalow.I couldn't be happier living in this 'work of art' and am particularly thrilled that a company of the caliber of Articulate Finish can also be reasonably priced!
