Whether the property is a period cottage or a new extension, tacking in Capel Cross gets the same careful approach from R Kenward Plastering Contractors, the correct fixing centres, properly staggered joints between rows, and the right expansion gaps at floor and ceiling level, so the skim coat that follows goes onto a genuinely sound, flat base rather than one that will crack within a year.
We look after homes and businesses throughout Capel Cross in Kent, and regularly work in neighbouring areas such as Canadia and Burwash.
