Float and Set in Swattenden by R Kenward Plastering Contractors

Swattenden, Kent

Local Float and Set in Swattenden and the Surrounding Villages

Getting float and set right in Swattenden takes real experience, not just a trowel. R Kenward Plastering Contractors brings 25+ years of hands-on plastering experience to every job across Kent, 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.

We look after homes and businesses throughout Swattenden in Kent, and regularly work in neighbouring areas such as Snagshall and Stonegate.

Older Swattenden 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 Swattenden wall build-up on-site before recommending the right system for that particular Swattenden 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.
