We get it done
Built to programme, snagged with you and left clean and ready to finish.
How much does drylining cost?
It depends on the system, the area and access, so we price every job individually. After a free site visit (or from your drawings) we send a clear, itemised quote broken down by system and area, with no vague provisional sums.
Do you work for homeowners as well as builders?
Yes. We work directly for homeowners on extensions, lofts and renovations, and as a subcontractor for builders, developers and fit-out contractors on larger projects.
Do you do the plastering too?
We board to suit whichever finish you are planning: ready for a skim coat, or taped and jointed for a dry finish. Tell us how you want it finished when you ask for a quote.
How soon can you start?
It varies with the time of year. Tell us your timescale in the quote form and we will be honest about when we can fit you in.
Not sure which system you need?
Send us drawings or a few photos and we'll recommend the right system and price it. Site visits are free.
