Looking for reliable Traditional Plastering and Skimming in Shipbourne? Polished Venetian re-plasters, patches, and skims interior walls and ceilings using gypsum or lime based plaster, chosen to match your property and the finish you are after. As a Kent based team, Shipbourne sits comfortably within our usual working radius, alongside Limpsfield Chart and Tylers Green and the towns around them.

A hollow sound when you tap the wall usually means the plaster has blown and lost its bond with the background. We check for this during the site visit and recommend hacking off and re-plastering only where it is genuinely needed.

We plaster and skim ceilings, walls, and partitions to the same standard, so the finish carries evenly around the whole room. Ceilings showing hairline cracks or sagging patches are assessed and made good before the finish coat is laid on.

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

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.
