Float and Set in Salehurst by R Kenward Plastering Contractors

Salehurst, East Sussex

Local Float and Set in Salehurst and the Surrounding Villages

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 Salehurst 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.

From our Beckley base we reach Salehurst and the rest of East Sussex quickly, including neighbouring Dale Hill and Sandhurst Cross.

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

Whatever the size of the Salehurst job, R Kenward Plastering Contractors brings the full range of services to Salehurst, float and set included, alongside skimming, float and set, tacking, sticking, and the specialist decorative finishes for Salehurst homes. Call 07850 161812 today.
