Rushers Cross, East Sussex
Trusted Float and Set for Rushers Cross Homes
Homeowners and builders in Rushers Cross come to R Kenward Plastering Contractors for float and set, 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. It is one of the core services offered across East Sussex alongside the practice's specialist decorative finishes.
We look after homes and businesses throughout Rushers Cross in East Sussex, and regularly work in neighbouring areas such as Romford and Robertsbridge.
Older Rushers Cross properties sometimes still have original lath and plaster or lime-based walls, which need a different approach to a modern gypsum job. We assess the Rushers Cross wall build-up on-site before recommending the right system for that particular Rushers Cross property, 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.
No two Rushers Cross jobs are quite the same, which is why every Rushers Cross quote for float and set is priced on what the property actually needs. Call 07850 161812 to arrange a visit, or a FaceTime walkthrough for smaller Rushers Cross jobs.

Float and Set in Rushers Cross 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 Rushers Cross that a single skim coat cannot correct.
