Dry Lining Services by PlasterCraft Durham
Dry lining is a modern and efficient method for creating smooth, even walls and ceilings. At PlasterCraft Durham, we specialize in this technique, which involves fixing plasterboard to the internal structure of buildings. This process offers several benefits over traditional plastering methods.
Firstly, it significantly speeds up the construction process as it eliminates the need for multiple layers of wet plaster and long drying times. Dry lining also enhances the thermal insulation and soundproofing of your property, making it more energy-efficient and comfortable. This method is particularly suited for new builds and renovations where quick, high-quality finishes are required.
Our team of skilled professionals ensures that every dry lining project is completed to the highest standards, using the best materials available. We tailor our services to meet the specific needs of each client, ensuring optimal results. Whether you’re looking to update a single room or undertake a large-scale construction project, PlasterCraft Durham is your go-to for professional dry lining services.

Dry Lining Services
At Plaster Craft Durham, we offer a range of plastering services to suit any commercial or domestic work.
Standard Wall Partitions
Our dry lining contractors in Durham offer wall partitions for both commercial and residential projects. These systems can utilize a wide range of boards, including moisture-resistant boards, standard wallboards, soundproof boards, and fireproof shields, ensuring the right solution for every need.
Direct Bonding
Direct bonding, also known as dot and dab, involves fixing a single layer of plasterboard onto traditional masonry surfaces using adhesive dabs. This method provides a smooth, even finish and is ideal for quickly preparing walls for decoration.
Wall Liner Linings
Wall liner systems involve fixing boards onto a lightweight metal framework channel designed to correct any irregularities on masonry surfaces. The type of board used depends on the condition of the surface and the specific requirements of the project. This method ensures a smooth, even finish suitable for various applications.
Stud Wall Linings
Stud wall linings are an ideal solution when a surface is unsuitable for other types of lining systems or when the wall lining needs to be independent of an adjoining wall. Our dry lining experts in Durham are ready to assist you at every step, ensuring a professional and durable finish.
Metal Furring Linings
Metal furring linings are ideal for masonry surfaces that are uneven or unsuitable for direct bonding. This method involves attaching metal furring channels to the surface, providing a level framework for applying boards. Pre-treatment may be necessary to clear residues and ensure sound application for optimal results.
Metal Frame Celings
The MF ceiling system, or metal frame ceiling, is an excellent load-bearing suspended ceiling solution. This method involves constructing a metal framework, which is then covered with plasterboards to create a smooth, durable ceiling. It is ideal for both residential and commercial applications, providing a sturdy and adaptable option for various ceiling designs.
