Sticking in Beckley by R Kenward Plastering Contractors

Beckley, East Sussex

Trusted Sticking for Beckley Homes

Sticking is plasterboard fixed directly to a solid masonry wall using adhesive dabs rather than a timber or metal frame, the fastest way to straighten and finish a solid wall while keeping the loss of room space to a minimum. 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.

Beckley sits within our core East Sussex coverage, alongside nearby communities like Northbridge Street and Salehurst, all within a short drive of our Beckley base.

For a job in Beckley, the process starts with a proper assessment of the Beckley wall or ceiling in question, then moves through each stage in the right order: check the wall for damp, soundness, and flatness before boarding, mark out and apply adhesive dabs to the wall in the correct pattern and spacing, and on through to the finished surface. Nothing is rushed on a Beckley job, because the quality of sticking only becomes obvious once decoration goes on.

Sticking in Beckley FAQs

It can be, but older solid walls in Beckley sometimes need a breathable approach rather than modern gypsum adhesive and boards. We assess the wall build-up on-site before recommending sticking over a lime-based alternative.
