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 Wadhurst 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.
Based in Beckley, R Kenward Plastering Contractors covers Wadhurst and the wider East Sussex area, including nearby Whatlington and Stonecrouch.
