Traditional Plastering and Skimming in Cooling

Call 07889 226357

Traditional Plastering and Skimming from Polished Venetian gives homes and businesses in Cooling, Kent smooth, level walls and ceilings that are ready to paint or wallpaper. Working with gypsum or lime based systems, we handle full re-plasters, patch repairs, and skim coats across new builds and renovations alike. Cooling and the neighbouring Kent spots of St Mary Hoo and Stonehill Green make up a good share of our workload, all reachable quickly from our Dartford base.

Fresh plaster needs time. As a guide, each coat wants around five to seven days to dry before painting, depending on thickness, ventilation, and the weather. We tell you when the walls are properly ready, so your decoration lasts instead of flaking.

Partitions and new plasterboard get the same attention as a repair job. We skim fresh boards to the same smooth, level standard as an existing wall, so a new stud wall matches the rest of the room once decorated.

Polished Venetian covers Cooling and the wider Kent area from our Dartford base, and every job starts with a free, no obligation quote in writing. Get in touch today to talk through your Traditional Plastering and Skimming project.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. For period and heritage properties we often recommend breathable lime based plaster, which is sympathetic to older wall constructions and lets moisture move naturally.
