Drylining in Chelsea

We deal with drylining for homeowners, landlords, builders, developers and commercial fit-out clients in Chelsea every week. Jobs are done properly, priced clearly and finished on time.

Our Chelsea jobs cover Georgian and Victorian townhouses, mews houses and mansion flats. Every property is a little different, which is why we price from the details you send.

In Greater London, a lot of extension work is finished with dot-and-dab so trades can move on without waiting for wet plaster to dry.

Questions about drylining in Chelsea

Do you work in Knightsbridge and other parts of Chelsea?

Yes. Our service covers all of Chelsea, including Knightsbridge, Brompton, West Brompton, Pimlico, Fulham and Sloane Square, as well as Battersea, Camden, Wimbledon and Islington.

Does a new partition wall need building regulations approval?

A simple non-structural partition in an existing house often does not, but it can if it affects fire escape routes, ventilation or natural light, or forms part of a loft conversion, extension or conversion to flats. Sound insulation rules apply to new homes and conversions. If in doubt, check with your local building control before work starts.

What to have ready for your Chelsea quote

  • Mark where TVs, shelves, radiators, basins and kitchen units will go so fixings can be planned
  • Check whether the work needs building control, especially for loft conversions, flats, garages and external walls
  • Have older textured ceilings or coatings tested for asbestos before they are drilled or removed
  • Arrange your electrician and plumber for sockets, lights and radiators before and after boarding
  • Ask each contractor to state the method, board types and finish so quotes can be compared
