Whydown, East Sussex
Float and Set Specialists Covering Whydown, East Sussex
Float and set is the traditional two-coat system for bringing uneven blockwork or badly damaged walls back to a true, flat, durable finish. R Kenward Plastering Contractors carries out float and set for homes and businesses across Whydown and the wider East Sussex area, bringing 25+ years of hands-on plastering experience to every job.
As a East Sussex based team working out of Beckley, we treat Whydown as part of our home patch, along with nearby West Cross and Swiftsden.
Older Whydown 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 Whydown wall build-up on-site before recommending the right system for that particular Whydown 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.
