A Suprising Job.....

I just thought that I'd share a picture from a job that I helped my mate out on the other day

The plaster just came away in my hands,, no tools required at all!!!!

OH, egg box walls,

I have those in my house, very handy to get wires into the loft without knocking holes, 

luckily for me the boarding doesnt fall off like yours has tho,

Ohhh,,, not mine thankfully,, a job

We had to add battens in the wall to give it some strength..

Got to go back tomorrow to 2nd fix the extractor fan etc...

while they are glued together they are surprisingly sturdy/stiff, but, remove one side and the strength is gone.

how will you be able to second fix the fan with no wall being there :slap :coat

not seen one of those for ages

Wow, I've seen hollow core doors of similar construction, never an entire wall. I'm not sure a bathroom would be the best place for this type of paneling, wouldn't humidity be a problem?

Well,,, the tiles on that section had delaminated (for a better word) from the wall... Still there, but not fixed to the wall...and water from the shower had got behind them and rotted the plaster board... I would have replaced it with cement board,,, but the plumber just put plaster board back... However he does do a good tiling job so I think it'll remain waterproof

see it often up here. useful for getting cables in with minimal damage, unless you hit some wood

usually use a bit of T2 lid folded over. breaks through easily
