Expert Traditional Plastering and Skimming for Henhurst Homes

From period cottages to new build extensions, Henhurst homes come to Polished Venetian for Traditional Plastering and Skimming that suits the wall behind it. We use breathable lime plaster on older, heritage properties and quick drying gypsum where a clean modern finish is called for. From our Dartford base we take on jobs across Henhurst and the neighbouring Kent towns of St Johns and Wierton without any trouble.

Not every wall needs stripping back. Where the existing plaster is sound we can skim straight over it for a fresh, flat finish, and where it is blown or crumbling we hack it off and re-plaster from the background up. That call is made at the site visit, not guessed over the phone.

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.

We would rather get the detail right than rush you into booking. Send a few photos or arrange a free site visit in Henhurst, and we will tell you honestly what the job needs and what it will cost.
