About this service

Dot & Dab Plasterboarding in Manchester

Dot-and-dab bonds plasterboard direct to brick or block using adhesive dabs, so you get a flat, insulated wall surface without losing space to a battened frame.

It is the go-to method for renovations of Manchester's older terraces and semis where masonry walls are out-of-true. We level the boards, skim or tape, and hand back a paint-ready wall.

FAQs

Common questions

Does dot and dab cause damp?+

Not when it is done correctly — we never dot-and-dab over actively damp walls. We diagnose and fix the damp first.

How much wall space does it lose?+

Usually 25-40mm including board. Far less than battening and boarding.
