Lewisham drylining: common questions

What do you need from me to quote in Lewisham?

Simply fill in the form on this page with your Lewisham postcode, a few details of the job and when you need it. Photos help but are optional.

What is the difference between drylining and plastering?

Traditional plastering applies wet plaster directly to the wall, which takes time to dry and needs a skilled finish. Drylining fixes plasterboard to the wall or to a frame, then finishes the joints or skims the surface. Drylining is quicker, introduces much less moisture into the building, and can usually be decorated within a few days.
