Building A Wall In Our Bungalow

In this video I'll be building a stud partition wall in our home, a 1930s bungalow.
We needed to create an office space for Ria (my fiance) / guest bedroom so we chose to divide up a large space in the house that was used by the previous occupants as a living room.
I'll show you how to build a wall (or at least, how I build one!) and some tricks along the way.

The reason I would have removed the carpet is over time it will detiorate, meaning the stud won't be tight to the floor boards. I would have personally made the wall flush with the RSJ boxing on both sides and then installed pocket doors that would look very sleek. Great video I love your content

I'm with you on the plastering question - it's always seemed strange to me that we put up perfectly flat boards & then cover them in (if you're lucky) flat plaster - taping/filling & sanding is so much easier and cheaper

[@TheMorsey123]

there actually isn't a lot of cost difference between plastering and taping and they both take skilled tradesmen to get a decent result. the main reason plaster is more popular is purely down to people not liking the matt finish taping gives paint. that being said more of the bigger site developers are going down the taping route recently because its quicker

[@paulmcfadyen689]

enjoyed the video very much Keith, very clear and good directions, many thanks

[@josephkrug8579]

That looks to have come out really well :) One thing i learned ages ago, if you want a more sound proofed wall, and I guess it would help with heat transfer too, just use a 2x6 vs a 2x4 for the top and bottom plates and stagger 2x4 verticals and put insulation all around/through it. That way no sound or heat can directly travel via the studs to the other side of the wall. I like the trick of pushing in the brick spacers with the screw, I will have to remember that :)

Great video Keith! 💪🏼 love watching your videos just satisfying 😄😁 I’m a fully qualified site joiner and yes when building stud partitions, we do normally knock them up on the floor only if the floor is level! You did it the right way due to the sagging... Well done 👍 Also sometimes doing it in situ you get a much tighter/neater build quality, than knocking them up on the floor and lifting up.

[@o.g.bwoodwork]

Really enjoyed this mate. I’m scared of plastering as well. I’ve seen so many videos on Facebook of tradesmen touching a newly plastered wall and it collapses, shattering into a million pieces.

Excellent work Keith. To be honest, not cutting the carpet away from the studding makes for good draught exclusion which in turn keeps the warmth in. Great video chap

Nice job Keith 😁.

Tape and filling is pretty common in Scotland paired to skimming when it comes to plasterboard strangely

[@davidmcarthur1093]

I'm not a plasterer but I have plastered a few walls in my many years on earth and I find the quicker you do it and with the plaster being quite wet the better the result .

[@oliverhuppe2415]

Nice work and well done. We chamfer the edges of the plasterboards with about 45 degrees on the sides which stuck together before filling up with filler respectively before attaching to the wall. So the filler can balance the joints when the plasterboards expands and the filler can join with the material inside the board instead of the paper surface (sorry for my poor english, german native speaker 😊).

[@RagnBoneBrown]

Cheers. I used tapered edge board 👍

[@huttonnick]

[@dannymurphy1779]

Just for other people, in general you should take up the carpet and cut the skirts, it will be for fire and sound transmission reasons. I also don't know if you are really meant to put holes in plasterboard that is meant to be a fire protection for the steel, in a two storey house the whole purpose of it is to give 30mins fire protection. Tiny air gaps can really accelerate a fire, that is the issue.

[@sammymartin2495]

You could check the crown of the studs is all the same way, so that the wall doesn’t wobble. Probably doesn’t matter here but worth checking on a longer wall. I would also mark out the top and bottom plate at the same time. Check out Larry Hun for some amazing hammer skills.

Great example! With respect to skim coating, you could do it regardless of skills (at least in my experience). Especially when you are working on your own home. Just takes patience, raking light and (MANY) more than the three coats a pro would use so she could get on to the next job.

[@80cardcolumn]

14:05 If you pre-assemble a wall on the floor, you may not be able to stand it up. The diagonal of a rectangle (through the frame thickness) is longer than the edge (the frame/opening height). Ask me how I know.

Next time you use plaster board, consider using something like the "Bosch D60498 Drywall Dimpler", it'll reduce the chances of driving the scree too deep into the plaster board.

Great video :-) I served 9 years as a 1st & 2nd fix joiner and built many a stud wall over the years. Couple of little tips which you may find easier if you ever build another one with a door way. If you start with the two vertical studs either side of the door way and work back to the walls it saves you having to faff about plumbing & packing out the two verticals against the walls. Oh! and 5:48 You've been letting Dylan do the driving again haven't you lol :-)

[@jordanallison7105]

Just curious, wouldn't the same moisture damage happen later if you just put wood by itself in the same place in direct contact with the concrete like the damaged wood you removed? Did you coat it in something or use a plastic barrier to block the moisture before installing the replacement wood?

[@RagnBoneBrown]

No, the issue was that the floorboards had been butted up against the brick. The new boards were placed about 20mm away so moisture can’t transfer

Probably would have used a multi-tool to cut the skirting away or removed the skirting completely and replaced but understand the reasoning behind not doing so. Not sure about assembling on the carpet as that is a surface that will alter. Maybe would have looked at pocket doors but they are more expensive. I don’t think assembling a stud wall on the floor and putting in place would work as you wouldn’t be able to get it to fit snugly, diagonal length greater then the height. Great video as always keep up the good work.

[@danielwozniak8411]

It puzzles me why we use plaster board and then plaster over it in the UK. I thought the purpose of plaster board was to replace the plaster and lathe(?) they used to use. Mind you when my father retired, my mum had him enrolled in the local college on a plasterer's course and got him to re-plaster their house.

[@donjohnson24]

Nice work as usual, Keith. Did you consider using Masonry Torx Frame Fixing Screws (Toolstation Product code: 39995) instead of the rawlplug method at 8:47 ? I've found them to be great - especially as all the bricks used in my home are the ones with holes in them, and rawlplugs always seem to find them.

[@RagnBoneBrown]

Thanks Don, I've used them before and yes they're great. But I didn't have any to hand so just used what I had

[@accessfm]

Great job Keith... Just wondering what happened with the damage on the side of your van though?

[@RagnBoneBrown]

It's like that on both sides unfortunately 🙄

[@tobybeswick36]

a tight fit on the studs would be more than enough to keep the wall in place, meaning screwing to the joist was a waste of time. I've held 4x2 in place with just instastik and it's never moved. If the opening for the door isn't perfect, just use some packers, it's how door casings are installed all the time. So much complexity for such a simple project

[@RagnBoneBrown]

That's probably true but I'd prefer to secure to the walls, even if only a couple of fixings used. It's funny that as a youtuber I get just as many comments telling me how I've under built things as over built things. Everyone had their own way of doing things and everyone thinks they're right 😂👍

[@lukewilliams2700]

I’ve seen people in other videos glue floor boards down as well as nails to prevent squeaking in the future. Do you think that’s overkill? Also great videos. It’s nice to have content from the same country.

[@RagnBoneBrown]

I think it'd make them trickier to lift and re fit if access was ever needed beneath if they were glued. As long as the span between joists isn't too big and the boards stretch across a few joists they shouldn't move or squeak, that's my opinion anyway but I'm no expert

[@df9177]

Just a quick observation. When you did the hole to check the RSJ you mentioned there was a 20mm gap between the plasterboard and the steel work, ideally shouldn't have a gap there. When you stuck your finger in the hole did you check if the thickness of the boxing off was 1 or 2 layers of plasterboard? Unless something like 'fireline plasterboard' was used, there should be 2 layers of plasterboard. It's to do with fire regs. If you can imagine a fire in a room, the most severe heat and flames are at ceiling height and corners, and this is the location that with intense heat can cause plasterboard to fail in minutes. This should have been picked up on the survey (depending on the type of survey) you had done when buying the house and proof that it had been signed off by Building Control. Not being picky or anything but hopefully giving some useful advice, but being a Building Surveyor this is the type of thing that insurance companies will look for and could invalidate your insurance.

[@RagnBoneBrown]

No idea to be honest but not something I'm worried about. How would a building surveyor be able to identify the construction without drilling a hole in it? We got a full house survey but it was absolutely useless, it highlighted lots of non issues and missed lots of critical issues!

[@BigDen06]

Place floor plate first then use plumb-bob to line up ceiling plate. 4 x 2 studwork when there's doors in it. 2 horizontal noggins per stud running parallel to each other. 12.5 plaster board, again as there is a door frame. Remove the carpet. Run base of stud all the way through and cut off after door studs fitted. Insulation unnecessary. At the moment you are going to get a lot of flexing/wobbling in the wall resulting in the doors not closing properly.

[@duncanmacleod7283]

Why bother with plumbing a line when you have a laser level?

[@RagnBoneBrown]

Thanks for the tips. The doors have been fitted a couple of weeks now and no issues, the gaps are as consistent now as they were when installed so I don't think it will be an issue

[@cjhification]

@@RagnBoneBrown absolutely, just insane we still use mixed systems.

[@cjhification]

@adie chip understand the evolution of timber, what makes no sense is the duplication of standards, or sticking with outdated measurement systems when something demonstrably better in many ways is available (I think the doubling of the denominator for splitting board in half is only positive of imperial I'm aware of).

[@cjhification]

@adie chip I have seen various studies comparing the two systems and due to the fact that with the decimal system you just move the decimal point, and measurement is more easily accurate, result in much lower levels of waste. With a imperial measurement of ½" divided in two becomes ¼" so you are doubling the bottom part of the fraction to divide in two.

@adie chip they are supposed to be self adjusting, but are just crap, I did turn the black screw on them that the clamp bears on. They have gone now as they were so crappy.
