Hey,
A lot of stud walls are built ... erm ... quite poorly in our house. Not enough studs, thin timber, not constructed very well etc.
when you push into them they bend, they are always popping nails through the movement, they crack at joins.
I'm quite happy to rebuild the walls - but there are some that I just don't want to (time, cost, effort)
Are there any tricks that will help make a wall feel stronger?
Will over-boarding with 12.5mm plaster board help?
Cheers
