How It Works

Dry Lining Process

Drawing & Project Review

We review drawings, floor plans, partition layouts and board specifications to understand the scope before visiting site.

Material & Board Type Selection

We confirm the correct board types for each area — standard, moisture-resistant, fire-rated or insulated — and agree the fixing method.

Setting Out

Walls and partitions are set out accurately in line with drawings, allowing for tolerance and future finishing trades.

Board Installation

Boards are cut, fixed and installed cleanly to the required specification. Access boxes, service routes and junction detailing are addressed.

Jointing or Skim Finish

Joints are taped and filled or a full skim finish is applied to the board surface depending on the specification.

Quality Check

We check board level, joint finish and surface quality before signing off the work and handing over.

Handover

The completed area is handed over to the next trade or end client in a clean and ready condition.
