What dry lining involves

Dry lining is a fast, tidy way to finish walls and ceilings without using traditional wet plaster throughout. It suits uneven walls, rooms that need insulating and warming up, and jobs where a clean surface is needed quickly.

We board directly to blockwork or on battens and metal frame, and can skim the boards to a smooth finish or tape and joint them ready for decorating.
