Traditional Plastering and Skimming Services in Ide Hill, Kent

A good skim is the difference between a wall that looks flat and one that only looks flat until the light hits it. Polished Venetian brings that standard of Traditional Plastering and Skimming to Ide Hill, finishing every surface by hand so it takes paint or wallpaper cleanly. You will find us working just as often in The Pound and Great Buckland as we do in Ide Hill itself, all part of the same Kent patch we cover from Dartford.

The finishing is where the craft shows. We hand trowel every skim coat to the same standard we apply to our decorative Venetian and Marmorino finishes, because a flat, closed surface is what lets the paint or paper sit right.

Lime plaster suits period properties because it lets the wall breathe and move, while gypsum suits most modern homes because it dries faster and costs less. We will not push one system where the other genuinely suits the property better.

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