Tapered Edge Fireproof Plasterboard FAQ:

Why tapered edge fireline plasterboard 15mm?

Plasterboard with a tapered edge offers a cost-effective solution for wall finishing. The tapered edges simplify jointing, and the sealed surface can be directly decorated. This eliminates the need for expensive wet plastering, making it a budget-friendly choice for DIY and professional projects.

How to finish 15mm Fireline Plasterboard

If you're not using the drylining method as detailed above then you would need to wet plaster the entire surface. Before starting, make sure the joints have all been covered with Self Adhesive Scrim which will reduce the risk of joints forming cracks. The surface is then plastered using products such as Thistle Multi Finish.
