Local Tacking in Colts Hill and the Surrounding Villages
Whether the property is a period cottage or a new extension, tacking in Colts Hill 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.
Colts Hill sits within our core Kent coverage, alongside nearby communities like Colliers Green and Coggins Mill, all within a short drive of our Beckley base.
For a job in Colts Hill, the process starts with a proper assessment of the Colts Hill wall or ceiling in question, then moves through each stage in the right order: measure the frame and plan board layout to minimise joints and maximise strength, cut boards to size, allowing for sockets, switches, and service penetrations, and on through to the finished surface. Nothing is rushed on a Colts Hill job, because the quality of tacking only becomes obvious once decoration goes on.
No two Colts Hill jobs are quite the same, which is why every Colts Hill quote for tacking is priced on what the property actually needs. Call 07850 161812 to arrange a visit, or a FaceTime walkthrough for smaller Colts Hill jobs.
