Broad Ford, East Sussex

Tadelakt Specialists Covering Broad Ford, East Sussex

Homeowners and builders in Broad Ford come to R Kenward Plastering Contractors for tadelakt, lime plaster hand-polished with a smooth stone and sealed with olive oil soap, which reacts with the lime to create a genuinely waterproof, seamless surface with a soft, tactile sheen. It is one of the core services offered across East Sussex alongside the practice's specialist decorative finishes.

Broad Ford sits within our core East Sussex coverage, alongside nearby communities like Brenchley and Berners Hill, all within a short drive of our Beckley base.

Older Broad Ford 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 Broad Ford wall build-up on-site before recommending the right system for that particular Broad Ford property, lime plaster hand-polished with a smooth stone and sealed with olive oil soap, which reacts with the lime to create a genuinely waterproof, seamless surface with a soft, tactile sheen.

Tadelakt is low-maintenance day to day, generally needing only an occasional reapplication of a natural soap or wax to keep its water resistance and sheen over the years, rather than the regrouting tiled walls need.
