How to trim walls with plasterboard

Before starting the work on the wall finishing with

gypsum plasterboard In order to finish the plasterboard of a wooden or concrete wall, it is necessary to prepare a number of tools and materials, namely:

  • Drywall;
  • Fasteners;
  • Reiki from a tree;
  • Drill;
  • Screwdriver;
  • Saw;
  • Putty and spatula.

Step-by-step instruction for finishing the wooden walls with plasterboard

First step-by-step instructions for attaching the drywall to the wooden wall:

  • Purchasing consumables
  • Bypassing the irregularities with the rack frame
  • Installing the fastening rails according to the presence of the insulation
  • Fastening the racks according to their intended purpose
  • The process of cutting gypsum board before the beginning of the plating
  • Fastening the drywall to the prepared rack frame

Proceed. Step 1. Acquisition of consumables

Before you begin to fix the building material to the wall, it is worthwhile to purchase all necessary consumables. They are fastening elements and putty.

Step 2. Bypassing the irregularities with the rack frame

Drywall can be mounted directly on the wooden wall only if its surface is perfectly flat. In case of unevenness, a rack frame is used. The thickness of such a frame depends on the size of the irregularities. The thicker and thicker the frame, the smaller the volume of the room becomes.

Step 3. Installing the fastening rails depending on the presence of the insulation

The rails 20-25 mm thick are fixed to the wall. The distance between each of them should not exceed one meter. The thickness of the rails used depends on whether a thermal insulation or soundproofing material is used between the plasterboard layer and the wooden wall. The above thickness of rails is used in case the layer of insulation is not to be used. In the case of insulation, the thickness varies depending on the thickness of the thermal fiber.

Step 4. Mounting the racks according to their intended purpose

First, the base plates are screwed horizontally: one near the floor, the other near the ceiling. Then you can start mounting the vertical bars of the frame. The ideal distance between vertical bars should be 50 centimeters. Such a distance will ensure the necessary density of the fixed material and the stability of the structure.

Step 5. The process of cutting gypsum board before the beginning of the plating

The material is marked with details of the required shape and size. After the marking process has been carried out, it is possible to proceed with the separation of a solid sheet of gypsum board into the necessary parts. Cutting GCR can be produced in two ways. You can saw the sheet directly with a hacksaw or make two parallel notches on the edges of the sheet and, with the help of small efforts, break it in the right place.

Step 6. Fastening of gypsum board to the prepared rack frame

Fastening of a material to a rack carcass is made by means of self-tapping screws. Distribute the screws is at a distance of 25 centimeters from each other. After the fastening works have been completed, it is necessary to treat the screwing points and joints with a special putty.

Also, when decorating inside the house is widely used frameless method of finishing the walls with plasterboard. This method has a number of distinguishing features from the above: in this case, the sheets are attached directly to the wall without auxiliary structures.

Before starting work on plasterboard walls with frameless method

For effective work of this type, a number of tools and materials must be used:

  • Gypsum board
  • Hacksaw
  • Adhesives
  • Fasteners and screwdrivers
  • Filler and paint

Step-by-Step Instructions for finishing the walls with plasterboard frameless method

The stages of this process are:

  • Preparing for operation
  • Fixing the GKL on the walls with adhesive materials
  • Fixing in case of a large drop of roughness
  • Finishing work

Proceed. Step 1. Preparing for operation

Decorating walls with gypsum boards using a frameless method sets several preparatory tasks. Work of this type is carried out only after the completion of all wet works, namely screed or plaster. After the room has dried, the surface must be cleaned and treated with a primer. It should be borne in mind that with a frameless skirting method, the maximum height of the room should not be more than three meters.

Step 2. Fixing the GKL on the walls with adhesive materials

With this method of plating, the gypsum board is glued directly to the wall with a special glue or gypsum plaster. A large number of adhesives of this type are present on the market. Among them, one can distinguish the trade marks "Fugenfüller" and "Perflicks".

Step 3. Fastening in the case of a large drop of irregularities

There are situations where too much unevenness of the surface of the treated walls of the house interferes with the finish. In such cases, for frameless installation it is necessary to use gypsum cardboard gaskets. They are strips of material that are attached to the wall and create a kind of beacons, thereby forming an even surface for the skin.

Step 4. Final work of

After completion of work, it is necessary to allow the adhesive materials to dry. Then it is possible to process the fixed sheets with putty and paint.
The final stage of work is the removal of unevenness and putty of the seams

Please note! Frameless method differs from the skeleton by its cheapness, but considerably increases the time for carrying out repair work, because this method of sheathing involves a large expenditure of time for cutting and drying materials during installation.

Thus, in the article were described and described two ways of finishing the walls with gypsum board: the finishing of wooden walls in a frame method and the concrete ones - frameless. Also, distinctive features were given that will help to choose the necessary method when carrying out repair work at home.
