Tacking is boards measured, cut, and screwed into place with staggered joints, creating a strong, level surface ready for jointing and skimming. In Dingleden 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.
We look after homes and businesses throughout Dingleden in East Sussex, and regularly work in neighbouring areas such as Curtisden Green and Ely Grange.
For a job in Dingleden, the process starts with a proper assessment of the Dingleden 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 Dingleden job, because the quality of tacking only becomes obvious once decoration goes on.
