Polished Plaster is a decorative lime or marble-dust based finish applied in several thin layers and burnished between coats with a steel trowel, catching the light like polished stone without the weight or cost of the real thing. In Beckley 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 Beckley and the rest of East Sussex quickly, including neighbouring Vinehall Street and Cripps Corner.
Older Beckley 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 Beckley wall build-up on-site before recommending the right system for that particular Beckley property, a decorative lime or marble-dust based finish applied in several thin layers and burnished between coats with a steel trowel, catching the light like polished stone without the weight or cost of the real thing.
