Plasterboard / Villaboard / Firestop Wall & Ceiling
Plasterboard is a material found in most construction projects. Formed from a sandwich of gypsum between outer layers of lining paper, its properties will differ depending on the make up of each component.
It has properties that help prevent the spread of fire and insulates against noise. As such, it is extensively used in many properties, although it’s not recommended for wet areas such as bathrooms and kitchens.
Villaboard wall lining is much more resistant to water damage, and therefore better suited to kitchens and bathrooms. It will take a tile happily, or wallpaper, or good old fashioned paint. It’s also great for areas that see high impact, such as hallways and kid’s bedrooms.
