Traditional Plastering & Skimming in Kent

Professional Traditional Plastering and Skimming in Stone

Call 07889 226357

From period cottages to new build extensions, Stone homes come to Polished Venetian for Traditional Plastering and Skimming that suits the wall behind it. We use breathable lime plaster on older, heritage properties and quick drying gypsum where a clean modern finish is called for. Stone is well within our Kent patch, close to Styants Bottom and The Park, which keeps travel short and our response quick.

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.

Patch repairs are as much about blending as filling. We feather new plaster into the surrounding surface so the repair disappears once the room is decorated, rather than leaving a flat patch that shows through the paint in daylight.

Whether your Stone walls need a full re-plaster or a quick patch before decorating, Polished Venetian gives you an honest assessment first. Call 07889 226357 or email info@polishedvenetian.co.uk to arrange a free site visit.

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.
