Tacking in Flishinghurst is exactly the kind of work Russ Kenward has built the business on since 2009. Covering East Sussex with 5.0 rating from 11 Google reviews, 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.
From our Beckley base we reach Flishinghurst and the rest of East Sussex quickly, including neighbouring Ewhurst Green and East End.
Older Flishinghurst properties sometimes still have original lath and plaster or lime-based walls, which need a different approach to a modern gypsum job. We assess the Flishinghurst wall build-up on-site before recommending the right system for that particular Flishinghurst property, boards measured, cut, and screwed into place with staggered joints, creating a strong, level surface ready for jointing and skimming.
