Master the Art of Plasterboarding Ceilings

[@oldskool4130]

Never screw the end of the board until the next board is butted up to it. Then it won't split or fracture. Good job for a spread though.

[@AlexMorleyPlastering]

Nice tip. Thanks buddy.

Great Tip, Any More Old Skool, Green horn starting out, would be appreciated 👍

Nice tip

[@matnewton3123]

You’re all correct. Go to about 1:20 and pause. Zoom in and you will see two sheets of PIR (celotex) above the joists. This is to stop air condensing inside the joists and creating damp problems. The only down side is it creates a very dominant roof when viewed externally.

[@matnewton3123]

Sorry this should have been a reply to a comment below which noted no apparent insulation. It’s not between the joists it’s on top of the roof.

Cracking video pal

Thanks Matt. Always good to hear your feedback.

[@georgeomalley6066]

When you Cut the sky light reveals, would it help to have the beveled edge against the glass, or does it matter

[@rafmo7413]

Will those cables get capped before being dabbed over?

[@dhillon555]

thank you for the video. Can I ask is that an attachment on the end of your drill for the screw gun and screw strips ? Or is it a drill made for just screwing in ?

Great vid mate. I’m a joiner and I’ve got to do some boarding this week and never done full sized rooms before. Do you need to stagger your boards like we do for our flooring?

[@AlexMorleyPlastering]

Yes. Stagger the boards. Thanks for watching the videos.

[@johncoburn7972]

So when does the ceiling get insulated?

[@jp6975]

I'd reckon it's constructed as a warm roof - so you don't put the insulation above the plasterboard.

[@AlexMorleyPlastering]

The above comment is correct. It is a warm roof.

[@GamingJinxed]

thats not up to the plasterer is it ? also it could be insulated from the other side of those osb boards as it gives an extra air void for insulating between the beams

[@johncoburn7972]

good to know thanks m8 👍👍

Good content genuinely. But the TV presenting style just feels odd, you should be on homes under the hammer or some thing

[@AlexMorleyPlastering]

😂😂😂 thank you…..i guess….?? But really sure what TV presenting style is tbh. We do try and be clear and unambiguous which probably contributes to the delivery.
