Plasterers in Lancing – Plasterboarding & Dry Lining
Behind almost every modern wall is plasterboard — and how well it’s fixed decides how good the finished room looks. Brighton Plasterers boards, dry lines and skims walls and ceilings across Lancing, for everything from a single stud wall to a whole renovation.
Boarding and dry lining services
- Boarding new stud walls, ceilings and extensions
- Dot-and-dab boarding directly onto masonry walls
- Insulated plasterboard to warm up cold external walls
- Moisture-resistant boarding for bathrooms and kitchens
- Tape-and-joint or full skim finishes, whichever suits the job
Why the boarding stage matters
A skim coat is only a few millimetres thick — it follows whatever is underneath. Boards fixed out of line, joints left proud or the wrong board in a wet room all show up later as cracks, shadows and bubbling paint. Getting the boarding flat, properly fixed and correctly jointed is what makes the final wall look sharp, and it’s where we take our time.
One trade, start to finish
Because we board and plaster, you don’t need to coordinate two trades — we take the wall from bare studs or brick to paint-ready in one process. Builders and kitchen fitters in the area use us for exactly that. Free written quotes across Lancing, Sompting, Worthing and Shoreham-by-Sea.
Tape and joint, or full skim?
For garages, utility spaces and rental refreshes, taped-and-jointed board can be ready to paint without a skim — quicker and cheaper. For living spaces, a full skim gives the flattest, most durable finish and takes paint beautifully. We do both and will recommend whichever actually suits the room and budget rather than defaulting to the dearer option.

Lancing plastering questions
Do you board new stud walls as well as plaster them?
Yes — we take walls from bare studs or brick to paint-ready in one process, so you don’t need to coordinate two trades. Builders in Lancing use us for exactly that.
What plasterboard should be used in a bathroom?
Moisture-resistant board in splash zones, standard board elsewhere — and the right board matters, because tiles and steam punish shortcuts. We fit what the room actually needs.
Is tape-and-joint cheaper than skimming?
Yes — taped and jointed board can be ready for paint without a full skim, which suits garages and rental refreshes. Living spaces usually deserve the flatter, tougher skim finish; we price both.
