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 Woodsden 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.
As a East Sussex based team working out of Beckley, we treat Woodsden as part of our home patch, along with nearby Worms Hill and Woolbridge.
On a Woodsden job, hand-polish the surface using a smooth stone to compress and seal the material. This is the step where the difference between a rushed job and a proper one really shows, and it is exactly where R Kenward Plastering Contractors' experience across Woodsden and the wider East Sussex border pays off.
Whatever the size of the Woodsden job, R Kenward Plastering Contractors brings the full range of services to Woodsden, tadelakt included, alongside skimming, float and set, tacking, sticking, and the specialist decorative finishes for Woodsden homes. Call 07850 161812 today.
