Smooth, Level Walls with Traditional Plastering and Skimming in Laddingford

Traditional Plastering and Skimming is the craft everything else at Polished Venetian is built on. The same artisan hand finishing we bring to our decorative Venetian and Marmorino work goes into every skim coat we lay in Laddingford, which is exactly why our surfaces hold up over time. Being Dartford based keeps us close to Laddingford, and to the neighbouring Kent communities of Borough Green and Milebush, so quotes and site visits rarely mean a long drive.

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.

Patch repairs are as much about blending as filling. We feather new plaster into the surrounding surface so the repair disappears once the room is decorated, rather than leaving a flat patch that shows through the paint in daylight.

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