Traditional Plastering & Skimming in Kent

Local Traditional Plastering and Skimming in High Brooms

Call 07889 226357

From period cottages to new build extensions, High Brooms 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. We are a familiar name across High Brooms and the nearby Kent villages of Chatham and Whitehill, having worked this patch for years from Dartford.

Every job starts with a free site visit so we can see the surface, agree the finish, and give you an accurate quote. From there we prepare the wall, hacking off any damaged or blown plaster, apply the base and finish coats by hand, and end with a quality inspection for a smooth, level result.

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.

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

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.
