Finishing Walls in Revit

February 2025

❝ Never got into it, but I saw how long it takes to create wall tilings for bathrooms and kitchens in a Revit project. ❞

👨‍💻 So, I tried to improve a small Revit button to select rooms and create wall finishes by their boundaries.

In my (biased) opinion, it is cool that I can set the height of the finishes or skirtings in two different ways, by parameter or by fixed value.

I know. 2025 and Revit still doesn´t do this by default.

I used it and it created tilings and skirtings for a few rooms in seconds.

PS: This small tool is in Nonicatab free.

PSS: Kudos to BIM42 for the original version.

💻 Coding tip: used room.getboundarysegments(options) to work with the edges of the rooms and create the finishes ( walls ). You can review the code using control and pressing this button.
