Drywall

Drywall (plasterboard) is a building panel with a three-layer structure: two sheets of cardboard and a middle layer of gypsum. It is used for walls, suspended ceilings, partition walls, and decorative elements. Drywall provides ideal walls without the need for plastering.

Ordinary plasterboard, which is white, is used for building wall cladding, suspended ceilings, and partition walls.

Waterproof drywall also contains an inner layer of silicone, which makes it resistant to moisture. It is green and suitable for wet rooms, bathrooms, and kitchens.

Fire-resistant drywall, which is pink in color, contains fibers that limit the spread of fire. It is used in kitchens, next to stoves, fireplaces, etc.

ЦThe cost of installing drywall depends on the area of ​​the room, the installation method - by gluing or screw profiles, and the type of drywall.

Drywall installation with metal profiles

Drywall installation with metal profiles is used to level uneven walls and to make suspended ceilings, partitions, columns, etc. The metal profiles are fixed to the wall, and the drywall is mounted on the metal structure with screws. The drywall mounted on metal profiles can carry additional weight.

Drywall for straightening walls

Drywall panels are flat and come in large sizes. Their most common use is straightening crooked and uneven walls. Installing drywall is an alternative to plastering for straightening walls.

Drywall partition walls

The construction of partition walls is done with drywall and metal profiles (dry construction).

Screed

A floor screed is used to level or raise the floor. It uses special cement-based materials. Before applying the screed, a suitable primer is used on the cleaned and dust-free floor. If a higher floor level is required, the screed can be applied in separate layers to prevent cracking.

Floor screed can be used to raise the floor level, level the floor in different rooms, and level or set a floor slope.

Self-leveling screed provides a flat and smooth base for laying parquet, carpet, or PVC flooring. It is mixed with water with an electric motor and poured into the entire room at once. The mixture is spread evenly throughout the room. After spreading, the mixture self-levels, and its surface becomes horizontal, flat, and smooth. It requires speed and precision. It is applied to a primed surface.
