Whether the property is a period cottage or a new extension, tacking in Goddards Green 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.
As a East Sussex based team working out of Beckley, we treat Goddards Green as part of our home patch, along with nearby Glassenbury and Swiftsden.
On a Goddards Green job, fix boards to timber or metal studs at the correct centres, staggering joints between rows. This is the step where the difference between a rushed job and a proper one really shows, and it is exactly where R Kenward Plastering Contractors' experience across Goddards Green and the wider East Sussex border pays off.
