Skilled Traditional Plastering and Skimming Serving Round Street

New plasterboard, a fresh partition wall, or a whole extension in Round Street all need the same finishing step before decoration can begin. Polished Venetian skims new surfaces to a smooth, paint ready standard across Kent, matching the same care we give to repair work. From Dartford, the run out to Round Street is a short one, and the same goes for the nearby Kent areas of Five Oak Green and Lower Stoke that we cover just as regularly.

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.

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.

Polished Venetian covers Round Street and the wider Kent area from our Dartford base, and every job starts with a free, no obligation quote in writing. Get in touch today to talk through your Traditional Plastering and Skimming project.
