Plastering and skimming in Headcorn
Headcorn is out in the Weald, south of Maidstone, and has a long history and some fine old buildings. We plaster, skim and repair homes across the village and the countryside around it.
Plastering in older Headcorn properties
Older timber-framed and solid-walled homes need a different approach from modern houses. Gypsum plaster can trap moisture in these walls, so lime-based materials are often the better choice. We'll look at your walls and talk you through the options before quoting.
If your home is listed, you may need listed building consent from Maidstone Borough Council before altering or replacing original plaster. Check before work begins.
Modern homes in Headcorn
For newer homes, our work is mostly skimming, dry lining, Artex covering and repairs after renovations, the same as anywhere else we cover.
