    Galvanised steel tracks and studs fixed to the floor, ceiling and walls.

    Standard, moisture-resistant or fire-rated boards, with taped joints.

Reworking layouts with plasterboard in Ciutat Vella

In 1960s and 70s blocks in areas such as El Barri Gòtic and El Raval, families often want to carve an extra bedroom out of a large living room. Plasterboard suits this well: boards fit through narrow entrances, it goes up dry and creates little dust on the shared staircase.

Before boarding each partition, in homes across areas such as Sant Pere, Santa Caterina and La Ribera, we mark with the client where the TV, wall units or shelving will go and fit timber noggins or doubled studs. Then we tape the joints, apply filler and sand.

Before starting we visit, mark out the partition with you and leave a detailed written quote. We also build partitions in nearby areas: Eixample, Sants-Montjuïc and Sant Martí.

Frequently asked questions

01

Plasterboard partition walls in Ciutat Vella: which areas do you cover?

We do this work in Ciutat Vella, in areas such as El Barri Gòtic, El Raval, Sant Pere, Santa Caterina, La Ribera and La Barceloneta, and also nearby: Eixample, Sants-Montjuïc and Sant Martí. Before starting we visit the property and prepare a detailed written quote.

02

Does a plasterboard partition block noise?

Yes, if it is designed for it: mineral wool inside, double boards on each side and acoustic strips where it meets the floor and ceiling. We specify it according to the noise you want to keep out.

03

Can I hang units or a TV on plasterboard?

Yes. We fit timber noggins or extra studs inside the wall where heavy units will go, and use plasterboard fixings for everything else.

04

Is plasterboard suitable for a bathroom or kitchen?

Yes, with moisture-resistant board (the green one) in wet areas and, in the shower, waterproofing under the tiles.
