Drylining & plasterboard

Drylining and plasterboard installation

Drylining is the structural groundwork behind every clean wall and ceiling. Boards that are set out square, fixed correctly and packed where they need to be are what make the final plaster or tape-and-joint finish look effortless. Tonmark handles the lining stage as carefully as the finish, because the two stand or fall together.

How the work runs

1. 01

   Survey & set out

   We check the substrate, levels and service positions, then set out partitions and linings to the drawing or the agreed layout.

2. 02

   Board & fix

   Boards are cut, fixed and packed to a true, flat plane, with openings formed for doors, sockets and services.

3. 03

   Prepare to finish

   Joints and fixings are left ready for skimming or tape and jointing, depending on the finish you want.

Insulated boards, fire-rated and acoustic systems and suspended ceilings are available subject to confirming the specification for your project.
