D&D Plasterboarding in kitchen

Featured Replies

Looking to start dabbing the kitchen this weekend.  I'm getting pretty good (i think!) at laying the adhesive on the walls as a frame with intermediate stripes of adhesive vertically at 400 and 800. 

 

With me moving onto the kitchen should I be considering adding more adhesive in horizontal stripes for fixing cabinets?

Yup. A continuous layer where wall units need fixing for sure. Base units not so much, but it’ll be a lot easier if you do the same at the lower level

too.

Thanks @Nickfromwales, So I think a nice wide stripe of adhesive at about 900mm and about 2000mm from FFL should tick the boxes for now. 

Yup, it’ll pay dividends. Run the electrics horizontally, in the safe zone, to make like easier, or come up to the outlets from down low and then there’s the least amount of wires to navigate when drilling / fixing bits and bobs.
