Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our drylining services in Slough.

Dry lining is a method of finishing internal walls and ceilings with plasterboard rather than applying several layers of wet plaster. The boards can be fixed directly to brick or blockwork with drywall adhesive, often called the dot and dab method, or screwed to a timber or metal frame. Once the plasterboard is secure, the joints and screw heads are covered with tape and jointing compound. The surface can then be sanded, painted, wallpapered or finished with a thin plaster skim. Dry lining is commonly used in new builds, extensions, renovations and commercial properties. It provides a smooth finish quickly and can also create space for insulation, soundproofing materials, electrical cables and pipework.
Dry lining costs in Slough vary according to the size of the project, the condition of the existing walls and the materials required. A straightforward installation using standard plasterboard may cost roughly £25 to £50 per square metre, including basic labour and materials. Smaller projects may be priced using a daily labour rate instead. Costs can rise when the work includes insulated plasterboard, acoustic boards, fire-resistant products, metal framing or difficult ceilings. High walls, awkward access and extensive preparation can also increase the quotation. Every property is different, so these figures should only be treated as a general guide. Ask several Slough dry lining contractors for written quotations that clearly explain labour, materials, finishing, waste removal and any additional work.
Dry lining is often cheaper than traditional plastering, particularly when large areas or several rooms need to be completed. Plasterboard can be installed relatively quickly, helping to reduce labour costs and shorten the time before decorating begins. Traditional plastering usually involves applying multiple coats of wet material and allowing sufficient drying time between stages. However, the final price depends on the condition of the property and the finish required. Insulated, acoustic, moisture-resistant or fire-rated plasterboard can increase the cost of dry lining. A supporting frame may also be needed on damaged or badly uneven walls. Traditional plastering may still be preferable when restoring original features or matching existing surfaces. Comparing both options for your property will help identify the best overall value.
Dry lining is generally quicker to install than traditional wet plastering. A straightforward room may be boarded within one or two days, although the full finishing process can take longer. The installation time depends on the size of the area, the condition of the walls and whether a timber or metal frame is required. Adding insulation, soundproofing materials or specialist plasterboard can extend the schedule. Once the boards are fixed, joints and screw heads need to be taped and filled. Jointing compound may require several coats, with drying and sanding between each stage. A skim coat will add further drying time before painting can begin. Larger properties, high ceilings and complicated commercial projects may take several days or weeks to complete.
Dry lining offers a quick and practical way to create smooth internal walls and ceilings. It usually produces less moisture and mess than traditional wet plastering, which can help a renovation move forward faster. Plasterboard can cover unattractive masonry, uneven surfaces and minor cosmetic damage while also concealing electrical cables and pipework. A framed dry lining system can provide space for thermal insulation or soundproofing materials. Specialist plasterboards are available for bathrooms, kitchens, garages, offices and other areas with particular moisture, fire or acoustic requirements. Dry lining can also make it easier to divide large rooms or alter the internal layout of a property. When properly installed, it creates a durable surface that can be painted, wallpapered, tiled or skimmed.
