The planning and layout phase of installation is always the most crucial for setting the groundwork that will gauge the performance of the entire project. The qualified team of CHAD strictly follows standardised practices to yield outstanding results. Some of the first-line points to consider for plaster installation in Victoria include:

The orientation of the sheets must be carefully chosen, so as to minimise the number of butt joints and allow critical light to fall along recessed joints. Full-length sheets are highly recommended for keeping sheet end butt joints at a minimum.
Sheet joints must not coincide with the edge of doorways, windows, vents and other openings, except where control joints are allowed to form.
Control joints must be installed as per manufacturers specification, to accommodate structural movement, thereby reinforcing structural integrity.
Caulking must be carried out in applications where acoustic insulation and fire rating are required.
Wet areas must be tanked as per Australian Standards.

A Look-Back on a Successful Plasterboard Installation in Victoria by CHAD

A two-storey period home along Victoria Avenue is one of the successful projects for CHAD plasterboard installation in Victoria. The residence is nestled in the elite suburb of Canterbury, famed for its century-old oak tree-lined boulevards and opulent historic neighbourhoods. The homeowner wanted to change the profile of the house, without losing the distinct character and sophistication of the Edwardian era.

Following the Australian Standard AS3740 (Waterproofing of domestic wet areas), CHAD provided wet area plasterboards for high-risk areas prone to high moisture build ups, such as the bath, laundry area, and kitchen.

Overcoming the Challenge with CHAD Plaster
Wall tiles were stopped short of the ceiling to allow cornice cement to stick to existing plasterboard behind the tiles, as cornice cement is not designed to stick to smooth tiles. This allowed for sufficient cornice cement to hold the cornice in place above the tiles, achieving the desired look by the client.
