Your Local Plasterer in Folkestone

Folkestone's seaside setting is beautiful but tough on buildings — salt-laden air and exposure mean render and exterior walls take a beating, and coastal damp is common in the older homes.

We render with weatherproof systems built for the coast and treat damp properly rather than just covering it up. We're busy right across the town as the regeneration continues.

Local Know-How

Plastering by the Coast

Sea air is hard on render. We use flexible, breathable silicone systems that shrug off salt, damp and algae far better than old sand & cement does on an exposed seafront wall.

Inside, coastal and older Folkestone terraces often suffer penetrating or rising damp that shows up as blown, salty plaster. We treat the cause with membranes or tanking and re-plaster with salt-resistant materials — so it actually stays dry.

Good to Know

Folkestone Plastering FAQs

Is salt damp a problem in homes near the sea?
It can be — coastal exposure drives salts and moisture into walls, showing as blown, crystally plaster. We treat the cause and replaster with salt-resistant materials so it doesn't keep coming back.
What render is best for a coastal Folkestone home?
Usually a flexible, breathable silicone system — it copes with salt, driving rain and algae far better than traditional sand & cement on an exposed seafront wall.
Can you re-render the front of my house?
Yes — full re-renders and repairs, with the right beads and weather detailing so it stands up to the coast. We plan external work around the forecast.
Do you cover the Folkestone area and beyond?
Yes — Folkestone plus Cheriton, Sandgate, Hythe, Hawkinge, Capel-le-Ferne and the surrounding coast.
Can you fix damp in a Victorian Folkestone terrace?
Yes — older terraces here often get penetrating or rising damp; we diagnose it, treat the cause with membranes or a new DPC, and replaster so the wall stays dry.
