Common Questions
Drylining FAQs.
Dot-and-dab uses adhesive dabs to stick plasterboard directly to flat masonry walls — quick and economical. Battening fixes boards to timber or metal frames, better for uneven walls and where insulation or services are needed behind.
Yes, using acoustic plasterboard, resilient bars, proper insulation, and independent stud systems. We can significantly reduce sound transmission, though complete soundproofing is virtually impossible. The level of reduction depends on budget and construction methods employed.
For sound reduction, yes — insulation dramatically improves acoustic performance. For thermal requirements, it depends on location (e.g., insulation essential against external walls or unheated spaces). Building Regulations specify requirements for different situations.
Use proper plasterboard fixings rated for the load — toggle bolts, spring toggles, or cavity anchors. For very heavy items (radiators, wall-hung toilets, TVs), we install noggins (horizontal timber supports) during construction at the required heights.

Why Hire a Professional Dry Liner?
While dry lining seems simpler than plastering, poor workmanship shows immediately: visible joints, uneven surfaces, cracking, and poorly aligned boards. Professional dry liners understand structural loading, fixing requirements, joint positioning, and finishing techniques that create invisible seams and perfectly flat surfaces. We work faster, waste less material, and guarantee results that last.

Working with complex roof structures, ensuring proper insulation and vapor barriers, and coordinating with Building Control for fire and thermal compliance are all routine for us.
