R Kenward Plastering Contractors brings 25+ years of hands-on plastering experience to every job across East Sussex, the standard fix for tired, cracked, or discoloured walls, resetting the whole surface to new-build quality rather than patching problem areas.

Access and parking around Wierton varies from one property to the next, so we always factor this into the Wierton quote. Apply the first coat evenly across the wall or ceiling, whether the Wierton job needs a van on the drive or materials carried in from the road.

Skimming in Wierton FAQs
Skimming is the process of applying a thin, final coat of plaster, typically 2 to 3mm, over plasterboard or a base coat to create a smooth, hard, paint-ready surface. It is the standard finishing technique used on new-build walls and ceilings in Wierton, and the most effective fix for tired, cracked, or uneven older plaster.
