About Senza Finé
While some things have changed since Dave Wiegel launched a product line known as Senza Finé in 2004, much has remained the same. The company still offers uniquely styled decorative wall finishes echoing old world styles and looks by utilizing advanced modern day materials. They have evolved into a full-service supply & install contractor insuring the end result and took on the name Senza Finé Inc. T/A Timeless Finishes (Italian translation “without end”).
Still, a few things will always be the same: Senza Finé Inc. continues to be dedicated to designing timeless spaces, partnering with the best suppliers in the industry and never using subcontractors. All of their work is created in-house by experienced team members who are passionate about design. Decorative plaster is more of a craft than a trade, and experience is their greatest teacher. From these tenets, they quickly gained recognition, earning their first Washington Building Congress Craftsmanship Award in 2006. In 2009, Senza Finé formed a partnership with Armourcoat, the world’s foremost producer and supplier of decorative plaster, and became the exclusive installer in Washington, D.C., Maryland, Virginia and the Carolinas.
Senza Finé artisans are also certified installers of a number of hand troweled specialty materials and Acoustical Plasters to create an almost limitless range of options for any design goal. Working closely with customers from conception through installation, Senza Finé uses a local inventory of materials and develops custom designs at its headquarters in Dulles, VA.
This highly customizable approach allows Senza Fine to stay ahead of the fast-paced commercial construction industry, and create one-of-a-kind work, such as North America’s largest Armourcoat Anti-Crack project (Duke Ellington School of the Arts) and the largest stencil project located on the 4th floor at The Museum of the Bible.
With over 2 million square feet of decorative plaster successfully installed over the last decade, you can entrust Senza Finé to customize your space with the best product and craftsmanship available.
