Insulated and Plastered the ceiling in Margate

This ceiling has been insulated using rolls of a great recycled product from Ecohome  Insulation. Plasterboards were then fixed to the joists before being plastered to a smooth finish.

Making Your Home A Sound Investment

There are several ways to soundproof your walls & floors:
Many partition walls don't contain any insulation, so consider removing the plasterboard on one side and fitting acoustic insulation  wool between the studs before you replace the plasterboard. A slightly cheaper way is fitting a layer of sound-blocking plasterboard to a wall or ceiling, then plastering it. This really works well for brick dividing walls between terraced houses or flats.
To insulate floors, lift the boards and fit  acoustic insulation between the joists before you put the floorboards back down.

External Wall Insulation Systems

Insulation render systems is a material that is growing in popularity in the UK. The product used in this project is ParexDPR super fine, it has great insulation qualities as well as being low maintenance and hard wearing. Before applying the material, the external plasterboard has a fibreglass mesh and plastic angle beads fitted. Then the backing coat is applied. When this coat is dry & hard, the final coat can be laid and "floated up" to give the final finish.
