Float and Set in Dallington, East Sussex

Float and Set is a thicker base layer, built up and ruled off level to correct unevenness in blockwork, brickwork, or badly damaged old plaster, followed by a thin, smooth set coat. In Dallington and the surrounding East Sussex villages, Russ Kenward has been carrying out this exact work since 2009, on everything from single-room jobs to full property renovations.

Russ Kenward covers Dallington and the surrounding East Sussex area on the same local round that takes in Stonecrouch, Swiftsden and the towns around them.

Access and parking around Dallington varies from one property to the next, so we always factor this into the Dallington quote. Apply the float (base) coat, building it up to the guide and ruling it flat, whether the Dallington job needs a van on the drive or materials carried in from the road.

Float and Set work in Dallington starts with a conversation about the Dallington property, not a hard sell. Call 07850 161812 or send an enquiry describing the Dallington job, and R Kenward Plastering Contractors will get back to you with a free, no-obligation quote.
