Tacking in Tolhurst by R Kenward Plastering Contractors

Tolhurst, East Sussex

Local Tacking in Tolhurst and the Surrounding Villages

Tacking in Tolhurst 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 Tolhurst and the rest of East Sussex quickly, including neighbouring Seacox Heath and The Quarter.

For Tolhurst properties, leave appropriate expansion gaps at floor and ceiling junctions, then check the finished surface is flat and securely fixed before jointing or skimming begins. Every tacking job in Tolhurst follows the same sequence, whatever the size of the property or the room in Tolhurst.
