Tacking is boards measured, cut, and screwed into place with staggered joints, creating a strong, level surface ready for jointing and skimming. In Woods Green 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.
From our Beckley base we reach Woods Green and the rest of East Sussex quickly, including neighbouring Wittersham and Woodchurch.
Older Woods Green 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 Woods Green wall build-up on-site before recommending the right system for that particular Woods Green property, boards measured, cut, and screwed into place with staggered joints, creating a strong, level surface ready for jointing and skimming.
