Regarding using plasterboard on a ceiling and looking at other threads, if I get the whole area skimmed does this also take care of joints or are joints still taped and filled, prior to skimming?? If I do need to do the joints do I need to be especially fussy feathering edges etc. or will skimming also take care of this too? And if I'm butting square edges of cut boards, do I give the edges a bit of a taper (what with?) or no need to bother?? Advice appreciated.
This job now taken on some urgency as a small (but heavy) section of plaster (ceiling is lath and plaster) fell down unprovoked today and nearly took out my wife! - could have been a manslaughter charge!!
