As I said in an earlier post part of the lath and plaster ceiling in the hallway has come down. Having a careful look at the rest it's not too brilliant either - not surprising given it's over 100 years old. It covers underneath the stairs to the first floor and half landing, then up to the main landing - along that and then across and up to a further half landing, and I think I might as well replace the lot. I'm thinking to get as true a surface as I can with plasterboard before having it professionally skimmed I'll remove the laths too. Any comments?
Remembering Lidl had plasterboard supports earlier this week I nipped out hoping they still had them - and they did. Look excellent value at under a tenner each - nicely made. Load 80 kg. Strange instructions - do not work under the supported whatever. ;-)
