R Kenward Plastering Contractors carries out float and set for homes and businesses across Newenden and the wider Kent area, bringing 25+ years of hands-on plastering experience to every job.
Newenden sits within our core Kent coverage, alongside nearby communities like Oxleys Green and Pell Green, all within a short drive of our Beckley base.
For a job in Newenden, the process starts with a proper assessment of the Newenden 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 Newenden job, because the quality of float and set only becomes obvious once decoration goes on.

Float and Set in Newenden FAQs
Once complete, float and set leaves the same smooth, paint-ready finish as a skim coat. The difference is entirely in what happens underneath, correcting the wall's level, not in how the final surface looks or feels.
