Hollow sounding plaster, hairline cracks, or a ceiling that has started to sag are all signs a Childsbridge property needs attention. Polished Venetian carries out Traditional Plastering and Skimming across Kent, repairing or re-plastering as the surface actually requires. Our Kent coverage puts Childsbridge firmly on our doorstep, with Sutton Valence and South Street among the nearby areas we serve just as often.

A hollow sound when you tap the wall usually means the plaster has blown and lost its bond with the background. We check for this during the site visit and recommend hacking off and re-plastering only where it is genuinely needed.

Most interior walls take a base coat followed by a finishing skim coat, though the exact build up depends on the condition of the surface underneath. The finish coat is worked by hand and trowelled flat, so the wall is genuinely level rather than just tidy.

The finish on your walls sets the tone for the whole room. Trust it to a Childsbridge plastering team that finishes by hand and stands behind the result. Call Polished Venetian for a free, no obligation quote.

Frequently Asked Questions

Plastering builds the surface up from a bare or damaged background, while skimming is the thin finishing coat that leaves a wall smooth and ready to decorate. Most jobs involve both, a base coat and a finishing skim.
