Hi everybody, I'm removing some wall panelling in my hallway that the
previous owner fitted directly onto stud walls. I am going to put plaster
board up and skim. my problem is that he panelled right up to the door edge overlaping the door frame, now when I put up plasterboard and then architrave with the door frame not being wide enough the edge of the plasterboard will be seen between the door frame and the architrave.The only thing I could think of is to put a rebate in the back of the architrave with the router so that it fits over the edge of the plasterboard. Any better ideas would be appreciated apart from fitting wider door frames. thanks in advance. Ben
