dear all, thank you for your help with my plasterboard thread. Over last few days a family member has developed serious respiratory allergy to plasterboard and sanding dust. I wanted to know if there are any other alternatives? The said person copes well with wood and ply. If a fire rated...

Thanks.

I need to plaster a room(first floor)that has two internal and 2 external walls. As I understand I will need insulated plasterboard for external walls. What specification should I use? Thanks

Thank you for all your answers. Yes, framing(noggins) need to be added to the list. What will be a reasonable cost for this job?

Thanks. I will contact Unfortunately, we are in the southeast which is most expensive for many works. The RSJ is 4m long with two steel columns(2.2m high) supporting it. So approx 8.4m of steel work to be boxed and skimmed. Kitchen ceiling is 3.7 x 2.7m. The plasterer told me fire lined board...

All people who visit my house love the solid steel work. We have received many compliments for it. Don't know why? Yesterday I was asking DP if it was a male aesthetic idea, something macho kind of? He was unable to answer :-) Anyway, on a serious note, do envirograf actually paint or just...

Thank you for your answers. We have decided to go with a local fitter. He also fits for a national chain. Only drawback is we don't get 5 year warranty.

Thank you both for your reply. My problem is both national chain and independent fitters are new to me. It is difficult to know who is right?

Thank you for both the answers.

We have a typical 2up 2down house with a kitchen extension at the rear and bathroom on top of the kitchen. We have knocked down the wall between kitchen and dining room and supported it with RSJs. We have no wall between lounge and dining room so a completely open plan layout downstairs from...

Forgot to ask, out of the 3 things if thing is rejected then does it warrant a new application even if others are allowed?

First of all thank you for all your answers. Apologies I had to be away so couldn't reply earlier. Applied for: 1. Porch, front entrance. Not sure if we are within the 2m high way boundary as I don't know if the kerb is included/excluded. Some houses do have a porch. 2. Loft conversion. Not...
