The quote covers cutting and fixing, taped joints, metal beads on corners, and the skim when the room is being finished. Board for a wet room, and board that slows fire, change the materials inside that quote. - Plasterboard and dry lining: Price on request - An Andover ceiling takes longer than a wall, because each sheet is lifted overhead and fixed above head height. - We quote both faces of a new timber frame wall in Andover together, so tell us if each side needs plasterboard. - We leave the timber frame, the wiring and pipework, and the painting out of the boarding quote. - We turn up on time for the Andover boarding, and the work stays at the quote you were given. ## Plasterboard and dry lining across Andover We serve Andover from our base in Winchester. - Charlton - Picket Twenty - Augusta Park - SP10 - SP11 ## What happens on the day We cut, fix and then tape the boards for Plasterboard and dry lining in Andover, and a skim follows when the room is being finished. Dry lining means plasterboard goes on a timber frame or on the wall, instead of wet plaster on the brick. The skim is finishing plaster laid in a thin coat over the boards. ### Cutting plasterboard for openings in Andover We cut plasterboard around the windows, sockets and door frames in Andover before fixing starts. A socket is the electrical point on the wall. We place each joint where filling it will be simplest. The same cutting covers a new timber frame wall and a ceiling that has been opened. ### How plasterboard is fixed in Andover We screw plasterboard to the timber frame for an Andover job, or we bond the boards to the masonry with adhesive. Bonding means the adhesive holds the board against the wall. Each screw head sits slightly below the face so the finish can cover it. On a new wall, we board the faces the room needs once the timber frame is already standing. ### Taped joints and corner beads in Andover We press tape into each seam on the Andover boards and fill over it until the sheets form one wall. A metal bead, a straight metal trim, goes on outside corners and around openings to keep those edges true. When the room is being finished, a skim covers the whole face and hides the joints. If you do not want a skim, we leave the taped joints ready for paint. ### Paint after plasterboard in Andover Paint waits on plasterboard in Andover until a skim has dried pale and even, or it goes straight onto taped joints when there is no skim. Fresh plaster looks darker at first and lightens as it dries. A mist coat, ordinary paint mixed thin for the first coat, seals the skim before any full colour. We leave the room tidy. Painting and wallpaper stay separate from the boarding. ## Plasterboard and dry lining questions for Andover ### Do you do Plasterboard and dry lining in Andover?
