Traditional Plastering & Skimming in Kent

Traditional Plastering and Skimming in Hilden Park

Call 07889 226357

Traditional Plastering and Skimming from Polished Venetian gives homes and businesses in Hilden Park, 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. Hilden Park and the neighbouring Kent spots of The Pound and Claygate Cross make up a good share of our workload, all reachable quickly from our Dartford base.

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.

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.

From new build extensions to tired period walls, Polished Venetian brings dependable Traditional Plastering and Skimming to Hilden Park homes and businesses. Ring us or request a free quote online to get started.
