Dry Lining Fair Oak (Plasterboarding)

Dry lining is frequently required in home renovation projects, and you should be able to find several carpenters in Fair Oak who are willing to provide this service. By fixing plasterboard to metal framing, a brickwork or masonry surface or a wood studding, a smooth, flat wall surface is produced which does not have to be plastered. Although in certain situations the plasterboard itself may be decorated (with a bit of extra preparation), a really fine, durable surface is created by applying one last skim of finishing plaster. With regards to fittings, when attaching to a metal framework self-tapping (or Jack-Point screws) are used, when fixing plasterboard to wooden studding or joists, nails or drywall screws are used and when fixing to a masonry or brick wall the "dot and dab" method is used.
