Frequently Asked Questions

Drylining is the process of fixing plasterboard to walls, ceilings, or stud frames without using wet plaster. It creates a smooth surface ready for painting or decorating. Our team measures, cuts, and fixes boards precisely, then tapes and joints the seams for an invisible finish.

Most residential rooms can be drylined in 1–2 days. Larger commercial projects depend on scale, but our experienced crews work efficiently to minimise downtime. We provide a clear timeline with every quote.

Yes. For commercial and office drylining projects, we can schedule work outside business hours, during weekends, or in phases to minimise disruption to your operations.

Traditional plastering involves applying wet plaster over brick or blockwork, which then needs time to dry. Drylining uses pre-made plasterboard sheets fixed to frames or adhesive, with joints filled using jointing compound. It is faster, cleaner, and produces less mess.

Internal non-load-bearing partition walls generally do not require building regulations approval. However, if the wall affects fire safety, structural stability, or involves plumbing or electrics, approval may be needed. We can advise during your quote.

We use standard wallboard, moisture-resistant boards for bathrooms and kitchens, fire-rated boards where required, and acoustic boards for sound insulation. We select the right board for each application.

Yes. Insulated plasterboard or adding insulation behind standard boards can significantly improve thermal efficiency. This is particularly beneficial for external walls and loft conversions.

Clear the area of furniture and valuables. Ensure access for our team and materials. We will handle protection, dust sheets, and cleanup, but a clear workspace helps us work faster and more safely.
