Drylining, set ready to decorate.

Metal stud partitions, plasterboard, taping and jointing across commercial and industrial projects in the South West. JLG has spent years on large drylining packages for main contractors, and brings that same standard to your fit-out, walls dead plumb and joints set flat ready for the decorators.

01 / What's included

Every drylining job, run to a main-contractor standard

Scope scales with the project, but these are the parts of any drylining package JLG covers as standard across Devon and the South West.

S/01

Metal Stud Partitions

Metal stud framing set out true to line and level, single or double board, with the right stud gauge and deflection head for the height and the loading.

S/02

Plasterboard and Boarding

Wall and ceiling boarding including acoustic, fire-rated and moisture-resistant board where the spec demands it, fixed and detailed properly around openings.

S/03

Taping and Jointing

Joints, angles and screw heads taped and filled to a flat, continuous finish set ready for paint, no telegraphing once the decorators are in.

S/04

Encasements and Bulkheads

Service encasements, column casings and bulkheads framed and boarded to dress out the structure and hide the M and E runs.

02 / Frequently asked

Common questions, plainly answered

Do you offer taping and jointing as well as boarding?

Yes. JLG takes the package right through, metal stud, boarding, then taping and jointing set flat and ready for the decorators. One outfit, one standard, no finger-pointing between trades.

Can you do fire-rated and acoustic systems?

Yes. We build fire-rated and acoustic stud systems to the specified performance, using the correct board build-up, insulation and detailing so the partition actually meets the rating on paper.

Do you work to drawings and specs?

Yes. We work to architect and contractor drawings and the partition schedule, setting out to the layout and building to the specified system. Where the spec is loose we will flag it before we start.

What sort of projects do you dryline?

Offices, retail units, warehouse and industrial fit-outs and commercial refurbishments across Devon, Somerset and the South West, from a few partitions to a full floor.

How fast can you turn a package around?

It depends on the size and the run of the programme, but drylining is what we do day in, day out. Give us the drawings and a rough timescale and we will price it and tell you honestly what is achievable.
