Hollow sounding plaster, hairline cracks, or a ceiling that has started to sag are all signs a Priestwood property needs attention. Polished Venetian carries out Traditional Plastering and Skimming across Kent, repairing or re-plastering as the surface actually requires. Our Kent coverage puts Priestwood firmly on our doorstep, with Medhurst Row and Meopham among the nearby areas we serve just as often.

Material choice matters. Gypsum plaster dries quickly and suits most modern homes, while lime plaster is breathable and better suited to period and heritage walls that need to move and let moisture escape. We advise on the right system before any plaster goes on.

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