Chapel Cross, East Sussex

Local Float and Set in Chapel Cross and the Surrounding Villages

Float and set is the traditional two-coat system for bringing uneven blockwork or badly damaged walls back to a true, flat, durable finish. R Kenward Plastering Contractors carries out float and set for homes and businesses across Chapel Cross and the wider East Sussex area, bringing 25+ years of hands-on plastering experience to every job.

Russ Kenward covers Chapel Cross and the surrounding East Sussex area on the same local round that takes in Cackle Street, Coggins Mill and the towns around them.

Properties across East Sussex, Chapel Cross included, vary enormously, from older cottages to newer housing, and float and set is adapted to suit whichever a Chapel Cross job calls for. Physically corrects the wall's line and level before the finishing coat ever goes on, which is why it lasts, rather than trying to disguise dips and bows with a single thin skim, whether the Chapel Cross property is period or modern.
