Dot and dab is a method of fixing plasterboard directly to masonry walls using blobs (dots) of adhesive rather than timber battens. It's fast, effective and widely used in UK new builds and extensions.

Do you supply the plasterboard?

We can supply all materials or work from materials you've already purchased. We'll confirm this at quote stage.

Can you match an existing plaster finish?

We do our best to match existing finishes, though slight variations are normal between old and new plaster. Once painted, it should be seamless.
