Plasterboarding around windows

[Mag2.0]

Hi

First time plasterboarding (dot & dab) a small area.
Should i dot & dab the widow reveals first and leave the required overhang so that the wall boards meet flush?
The overhand would be 12.5mm + 10mm dab = 22.5mm (25mm)

Thanks!

We tend to do the walls first as these give a better indication of the reveal depth, once you have accounted for socket or pipe drops. We let the plasterboard creep past the masonry reveal upright by about 8mm or so. This means the reveal board sits tight against it.
