Expert Traditional Plastering and Skimming for Newington Homes

Every Newington property is different, which is why Traditional Plastering and Skimming starts with an honest look at the walls rather than a fixed price over the phone. Polished Venetian assesses the surface, recommends gypsum or lime as appropriate, and quotes accordingly across Kent. Alongside Newington, our Kent round regularly includes North Street and Singlewell, giving us a solid feel for the property types typical of this area.

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.

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.

We treat a single patch repair with the same artisan care as a full house re-plaster. If your Newington walls or ceilings need skimming or re-plastering, get in touch for a free quote and an honest assessment of what the job actually needs.
