Plasterboarding question

Featured Replies

A question to those that know, When i get quotes for boarding out my house( actively looking by the way) is it the same guys that plaster/skim them?

I just need to know how many line items to cost for on my budget spreadsheet.

Thanks in advance guys as always

No, different trade. We got the one company to do the lot but he just subcontracted the tape and jointing part. If I'd known that from the start 

Our plasterer did the boarding and skim. But he did say they don’t often board as the builder does it and they just turn up and plaster. 

In Scotland the joiners do the boarding out and then it's just taped at the joints, not skimmed. Ames taper does the taping and filling at the joints.
