Getting float and set right in Durgates takes real experience, not just a trowel. R Kenward Plastering Contractors brings 25+ years of hands-on plastering experience to every job across East Sussex, 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.
From our Beckley base we reach Durgates and the rest of East Sussex quickly, including neighbouring Flimwell and Cripps Corner.

Float and Set in Durgates FAQs
Float and set generally costs more than a straightforward skim because it uses more material and takes longer to apply correctly, reflecting the extra work of levelling an uneven or damaged wall rather than finishing an already-flat one.
