Float and Set is one of the services most requested across Dale Hill and East Sussex. 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 has been doing exactly this since 2009, with 5.0 rating from 11 google reviews.
Dale Hill sits within our core East Sussex coverage, alongside nearby communities like Cranbrook and Etchingham, all within a short drive of our Beckley base.
For a job in Dale Hill, the process starts with a proper assessment of the Dale Hill wall or ceiling in question, then moves through each stage in the right order: assess the substrate and rule out any damp or structural issues before plastering, apply render beads or screeds to establish a true, level guide, and on through to the finished surface. Nothing is rushed on a Dale Hill job, because the quality of float and set only becomes obvious once decoration goes on.
