Kelloe is a quiet, agricultural village with strong community roots, located approximately 10 miles south of Durham City centre and just east of the A167 corridor. The housing here is predominantly Victorian stone terraces, converted farmhouses, and newer residential builds, many of which require specialist plastering knowledge due to their age and construction methods. The village sits on gently rolling countryside and has a characterful, close-knit feel that attracts families and retirees seeking rural living within easy reach of urban amenities.
The DH6 area experiences typical northern damp issues, particularly in older properties where traditional brick and stone construction meets modern heating systems, leading to condensation and blown plaster. Minor crack development and minor impact damage are common in both older cottages and modern family homes, especially around window frames and corners.
For older Kelloe properties with lime-mortared stone walls, repair and remedial plastering is often the most cost-effective and sympathetic approach. Modern homes in the village benefit from standard repair or reboard methods, which our vetted traders assess based on structural soundness and aesthetic requirements.

“Good experience overall. Took a few hours to hear back but the plasterer was professional, assessed the damp-damaged wall honestly and gave a realistic quote for the repair. Job done well.”
“Used this to compare quotes for re-skimming our lounge and hallway. Had 3 plasterers contact us the same day. Went with the middle quote and the finish is absolutely perfect. Highly recommend.”
