INSTALLATION OVERVIEW
- The most important thing is to ensure that the finished wall surface will be level, so start by marking out the wall and ceiling to show the required face position of the boards.
- Using a straight edge, find the high spots on the wall and then plumb the position to the ceiling and floor.
- Transfer this position to the room corners, then add an allowance of 10mm plus the board thickness (22.5mm in total if you’re using 12.5mm board), and mark a continuous line on the floor and ceiling using the chalk line.
- Then mark vertical lines on the wall at 1200mm centres to indicate board positioning.
- At the same time, mark up and fix any services that will run in the gap between the board and the wall surface, and mark the position of any fixtures that may need additional support dabs.
- When you are ready mix the Gyproc Plasterboard Adhesive – the powder is ready mixed so all you need to do is add clean water as per the instructions on the pack.
- Start by applying a continuous fillet of adhesive to the perimeter of the wall, and to any openings or services.
- Working from a window/doorway or internal corner, apply three vertical rows of dabs, one row at the centre point of first board and then one row no more than 25mm from each edge.
- Finally, apply a continuous band of Gyproc Plasterboard Adhesive at skirting level.
- Start by placing strips of board at floor level to act as packing. Cut the Gyproc plasterboard 15mm short of the floor to ceiling height, and offer up to the wall, reverse side against the dabs, with the base resting on the packing strips.
- Then, using a straight edge, tap the board back firmly until the face lines up with the chalk lines on the floor and ceiling.
- When the board is in position, gently lift it, using the board lifter, until the top edge is tight with the ceiling, and then simply insert more packing strips at base to wedge the board in place and intermediate dabs at ceiling level.
- Now apply dabs for the second board in the same way and continue drylining, lightly butting adjacent boards together. When you reach an internal corner, cut the board to width and position the cut edge into the corner.
- When you have finished, joint and finish the boards in the usual way with Gyproc tape and Gyproc Jointing Compound.
