just a quick one for the plasterers
Jun 11th, 2006, 9:22pm
 
Hi fellas

As you can see from previous posts did a basic part time college platerin course just to improve diy skills. One job i have ahead of me now is to plasterboard a ceiling (only small toliet) and skim the side walls as the plaster is pretty good already. My question is what do i do to make the join between the ceiling  pplasterboardand the wall seemless. Do i use a tape to join the gap of the ceiling board to the wall before plastering it all?? If so what is the plaster tape called???  


thanks in advance

Paul

Use Fibatape, it's availiable from every builders merchants wherever plaster is sold.

It's self adhesive (but may peel off if left several days unplastered) so stick it over all joints including the ceiling - wall join just before you plaster.
