i have extended my kitchen and now need to re plaster board the old and new ceilings and all the walls, is there a correct place to start ie ceilings first then walls or start in a certain position or do i just start anywhere and do the whole lot as i like, thanks i will be screwing the ceilings not dabbing them, thanks

When a valuation is done is it likely that if work needs doing they have taken this into account and already reflected it in the price ? I have put in an offer of £90'000 and this house is on at £112'000 is this a cheeky offer. The bathroom needs redoing and three ceilings could do with being re plastered and also some electric work needs doing !!! well there are a few shops near by and a pub but its not a fantastic area just an ok starting spot as im a first time buyer It has also been on market for three months

We are currently renovating a house. All of the old plaster was taken off and all walls have been re-plastered with board and dab mainly but some browning. Also all of the ceilings have been redone. In 2 of the downstairs room it looks like damp appearing where the dabs are. Would this be damp or would it just be because of the amount of plastering the house is drying out, also there is no heating in the property at the minute. old plaster was taken off then left for about a month then all re done, no damp coursing was put in as we were told that when you use board and dab you dont need to damp proof as the air will circulate behind and stop damp. where the damp is showing is where the dab is.

i have just plasterboarded my ceilings in my house and want to artex them. can i artex onto the boards or do i need to to skim(plaster) them first? thanks.

I recently ripped down my old lath and plaster ceiling as it was starting to come down. I have since put up 1" x 2" laths across the room 450mm apart. I am after putting up some 900mm x 1800mm (6x3 foot) plasterboards, the only problem is i'm not sure how long you can have plasterboards up before they start to sag, I am told you need to plaster (skim) over them to stop them sagging. How long will I have to have before the plasterboards start to sag (how soon will I need to have them skimmed over)?
