Drylining, plastering & damproofing in Kendal & South Lakes
Interior finishing in Kendal & South Lakes — drylining, plasterboard, plaster finishes and damproofing done properly, finishing the structural work ready for decoration.
Kendal's limestone houses and the slate and stone cottages around Windermere, Ambleside and Ulverston have thick rubble-filled walls, so openings need careful needling and generous padstones; we plan the propping for stone before we arrive.
Interior finishing matters. We carry out drylining and plasterboard work on structural alterations and new builds, plaster finishes, and damproofing where moisture is a concern.
What’s included
- Drylining and plasterboard installation
- Stud partition walls
- Plaster finishes — skimmed and textured
- Internal making good after structural work
- Damproofing — rising damp treatments and chemical barriers
- Tanking and waterproofing for basements and cellars
- Moisture control and ventilation solutions
- Fire protection plasterboarding where required
Kendal and the South Lakes fall under Westmorland and Furness Council building control, or a registered building control approver. Inside the Lake District National Park, planning goes to the National Park Authority.
