Homeowners and builders in Swiftsden 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.
Swiftsden sits within our core East Sussex coverage, alongside nearby communities like Three Chimneys and The Platt, all within a short drive of our Beckley base.
For a job in Swiftsden, the process starts with a proper assessment of the Swiftsden 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 Swiftsden job, because the quality of float and set only becomes obvious once decoration goes on.
