Knox Bridge, Kent
Float and Set Specialists Covering Knox Bridge, Kent
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 Knox Bridge and the surrounding Kent villages, Russ Kenward has been carrying out this exact work since 2009, on everything from single-room jobs to full property renovations.
We look after homes and businesses throughout Knox Bridge in Kent, and regularly work in neighbouring areas such as Kippings Cross and Keys Green.
Properties across Kent, Knox Bridge included, vary enormously, from older cottages to newer housing, and float and set is adapted to suit whichever a Knox Bridge 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 Knox Bridge property is period or modern.
Float and Set in Knox Bridge is booked the same way as every other job on our books, a free Knox Bridge quote first, then a fixed price for the Knox Bridge work with no surprises. Call 07850 161812 to arrange your Knox Bridge visit.

Float and Set in Knox Bridge FAQs
Float and set is a traditional two-coat plastering system where a thicker base coat, the float, is applied and levelled to correct uneven or damaged walls, followed by a thin finishing coat, the set, trowelled smooth on top. It is used on new blockwork, extensions, and badly damaged masonry in Knox Bridge that a single skim coat cannot correct.
