From single walls to whole-house jobs, R Kenward Plastering Contractors carries out skimming throughout Twelve Oaks, Kent. A thin coat, usually 2 to 3mm, trowelled over plasterboard or an existing base coat and worked to a hard, glass-smooth finish.
Russ Kenward covers Twelve Oaks and the surrounding Kent area on the same local round that takes in Vinehall Street, Stonecrouch and the towns around them.
Access and parking around Twelve Oaks varies from one property to the next, so we always factor this into the Twelve Oaks quote. Apply the first coat evenly across the wall or ceiling, whether the Twelve Oaks job needs a van on the drive or materials carried in from the road.
No two Twelve Oaks jobs are quite the same, which is why every Twelve Oaks quote for skimming is priced on what the property actually needs. Call 07850 161812 to arrange a visit, or a FaceTime walkthrough for smaller Twelve Oaks jobs.
