Traditional Plastering & Skimming in Kent

Traditional Plastering and Skimming Across Saints Hill and Kent

Call 07889 226357

Hollow sounding plaster, hairline cracks, or a ceiling that has started to sag are all signs a Saints Hill property needs attention. Polished Venetian carries out Traditional Plastering and Skimming across Kent, repairing or re-plastering as the surface actually requires. We look after homes and businesses throughout Saints Hill and this part of Kent, and often find ourselves working in Kent Street and Milton Regis on the same round.

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.

Most interior walls take a base coat followed by a finishing skim coat, though the exact build up depends on the condition of the surface underneath. The finish coat is worked by hand and trowelled flat, so the wall is genuinely level rather than just tidy.

The finish on your walls sets the tone for the whole room. Trust it to a Saints Hill plastering team that finishes by hand and stands behind the result. Call Polished Venetian for a free, no obligation quote.
