joe90 Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Never come across 7.5mm plasterboard, do you mean 9.5mm?. Personally I don’t like 9.5mm, too thin and flexible fir my liking, 12.5 always IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diy Posted February 18, 2021 Author Share Posted February 18, 2021 No 7.5mm it is really thin so look like something else that need to be replaced in the house Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProDave Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Are you really sure it is 7.5mm? 9.5mm or 3/8 inch used to be common and certainly at 400mm centres was adequate. A great many older houses I encounter still have 3/8" plasterboard with no problems. I would not be fitting it in a new house but unless there were visible defects I would not be rushing to rip it out of an old house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
