types of plasterboard?

[rednaxela]

Hi,
I was looking in my Wickes book to see what type of plasterboard I would need to buy for my ceilings and one stud wall in my extension.
Can anyone tell me the difference / use between;

Baseboard 1220x900x9.5mm £2.49
and
Wall Board 1800x900x9.5mm £3.25

thanks in advance,
Alex

Believe or not the 2 differences are :- the price and the size

Sorry for that No it really just convenience of size really.May I suggest you do your ceiling and partion out 8"x4" sheets of plaster board as this will cut down on the amount of joints

Thanks splinter, if I go for the large sheets, I will knock up some supports to help me out. I bet its heavy!

thanks again..

It will be because must people reccemend 12.5 thick plasterboard for ceilings as it is more rigid went fixed ,than the 9.5 board
