Traditional Plastering & Skimming in Kent

Expert Traditional Plastering and Skimming for Marlpit Homes

Call 07889 226357

Skimming is a finishing trade, not a quick patch job, and it shows in the result. Polished Venetian brings that standard of Traditional Plastering and Skimming to Marlpit, working walls, ceilings, and partitions to one level, consistent finish across Kent. As a Kent based team, Marlpit sits comfortably within our usual working radius, alongside West Court and Medhurst Row and the towns around them.

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.

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.

Rated 5.0 on Google, Polished Venetian brings the same standard to a straightforward skim as we do to our decorative finishes. Get in touch for a free, no-obligation quote for your Marlpit project.

Frequently Asked Questions

Most interior walls take a base coat followed by a finishing skim coat. The exact build up depends on the condition of the surface underneath, which we assess before quoting.
