Drylining across Newport and South Wales

Newport is a city on the River Usk in south-east Wales with a port and steel heritage, now a commuter and logistics hub on the M4 between Cardiff and Bristol. We know the area well: we carry out drylining on behalf of homeowners, landlords, builders, developers and commercial fit-out clients throughout Newport, including Caerleon, Bettws and Malpas.

If you are looking for drylining in Newport, we can help. Our customers include homeowners, landlords, builders, developers and commercial fit-out clients throughout South Wales, and every job is given a fixed price first so you know exactly where you stand.

Our Newport jobs cover Victorian terraces, inter-war semis, council estates and new-build homes. Every property is a little different, which is why every quote is based on your details.

With older terraced streets, rural properties and coastal weather that takes its toll on buildings, buildings in South Wales vary widely, so the right drylining method is chosen wall by wall.

A lot of renovation work in Newport involves drylining old solid walls, either to get them straight or to add insulation.

Questions about drylining in Newport

How quickly can you start in Newport?

We aim to reply to Newport enquiries the same day, and the majority of bookings can be scheduled within a week or two. Urgent work can often be fitted in sooner.

What do you need from me to quote in Newport?

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

Do you cover Caerleon and other parts of Newport?

Yes, we do. We cover the whole of Newport, including Caerleon, Bettws, Malpas, Rogerstone, Duffryn and Alway, plus nearby Cardiff, Weston-super-Mare, Barry and Bristol.

Which Newport postcodes do you cover?

Every postcode in Newport is covered, including NP10, NP18, NP19 and NP20. If you are just outside Newport, send your postcode anyway and we will confirm.

Will drylining make my home warmer?

It can, if insulated plasterboard or insulation within a stud frame is used. This is a common way to improve cold solid walls in older homes. Care is needed with vapour control and around windows to avoid condensation, and in England upgrading a large area of an external wall can trigger thermal requirements under the Building Regulations.

  • Decide whether you want a tape and joint or a full skim finish
  • Mark where TVs, shelves, radiators, basins and kitchen units will go so fixings can be planned
  • Check whether the work needs building control, especially for loft conversions, flats, garages and external walls
