Tadelakt is 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. In Matfield and the surrounding Kent villages, Russ Kenward has been carrying out this exact work since 2009, on everything from single-room jobs to full property renovations.
We look after homes and businesses throughout Matfield in Kent, and regularly work in neighbouring areas such as Mill Corner and Marden Beech.
For a job in Matfield, the process starts with a proper assessment of the Matfield wall or ceiling in question, then moves through each stage in the right order: prepare a sound, correctly keyed base suitable for a lime plaster system, apply the lime-based tadelakt plaster in layers, working the surface as it firms up, and on through to the finished surface. Nothing is rushed on a Matfield job, because the quality of tadelakt only becomes obvious once decoration goes on.
