FAQs
Frequently asked questions.
Do you supply materials?
We can supply all boards, studs and fixings, or work with materials you or your main contractor provide. Your quotation will state which applies.
Can you work to architect or contractor drawings?
Yes. Send drawings and any system specification with your enquiry and we will price to them.
Should drylining be skimmed or taped and jointed?
Both give a good finish. Skimming gives a harder, seamless surface; tape-and-joint is quicker and suits many new-build and commercial schemes. We will recommend the best option for your space.
How long does a partition take?
It depends on size, openings and services. Your written quote includes an estimated duration for your specific job.
