DO YOU HAVE TO PLASTER PLASTERBOARD?

Hi M you absolutely DO NOT have to plaster over plasterboard. Should you decide not to plaster you would ideally use tapered edge plasterboard and make sure the installers know that the boards won't be plastered over. To learn more search for "plasterboard jointing and finishing" on google or youtube. Hope that helps. Regards M (for Martin).

Hi M How's M I 6. No you don't have to plaster plasterboard, but it's then susceptible to moisture, so it's best to paint it with emulsion to give it some protection JC

You don't have to but if you tile or wallpaper on to plasterboard & decide to change it . It will rip the paper off the plasterboard And you will end up with more damage G. Branch plastering

Our service is free of charge with no obligation quote and our tradesmans are happy to help with every aspects of jobs.

I hope this will help Best regards Rafal
