Professional plasterboard installation services for homeowners and businesses across Suffolk and Norfolk. Whether you're creating new rooms, replacing damaged boards, or undertaking major renovations, we deliver precision plasterboard fitting that forms the foundation of quality interior walls and ceilings.
What is Plasterboard Fitting?
Plasterboard fitting is the skilled installation of gypsum plasterboard sheets to create smooth, flat wall and ceiling surfaces ready for decoration. This fundamental construction process involves measuring, cutting, and securing 12.5mm or 15mm plasterboard sheets to timber or metal frameworks using specialized screws and adhesives. Our fitting service includes accurate measurement, precise cutting around obstacles like sockets and switches, proper joint alignment, and secure fixings that prevent future movement or cracking. The result is a stable, level surface that provides the perfect base for plastering, painting, or wallpapering.
