Professional Tacking Serving Windmill Hill
Getting tacking right in Windmill Hill takes real experience, not just a trowel. R Kenward Plastering Contractors brings 25+ years of hands-on plastering experience to every job across East Sussex, 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.
Based in Beckley, R Kenward Plastering Contractors covers Windmill Hill and the wider East Sussex area, including nearby Stonecrouch and Winchelsea.
For Windmill Hill 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.
